Bug Description

1) Linux Mint 18.2 with Cinnamon

2) Noticed an entry for "blueberry-obex-agent" in system monitor, when Bluetooth is disabled.

3) Discovered on forums that this is because the "Receive files from remote devices" option is still enabled (see screenshot). Disabling this and restarting the computer fixes the problem. It can be replicated by switching this option back on again.

4) If Bluetooth is disabled, it shouldn't be running any BT processes. The above option and possibly the "show a tray icon" option should be disabled and/or greyed out if BT is disabled in the Devices tab. Please note that no tray icon is displayed, even if this option is enabled. I'm not sure what the best fix is for that option - perhaps some people would like the visual confirmation that BT is disabled?

5) Issue was present on both of my computers, fixed and replicated in the same manner.

I have no idea when this issue first reared its head. There's a forum post on the subject here: https://forums.linuxmint.com/viewtopic.php?f=47&t=254853
