Bug Description
I had Ubuntu 14.04 and I had the Bluetooth Visibility set to On. (in the submenu under the bluetooth tray icon, where it reads "Visible")
It used to be always on, I didn't have to turn it on every time I wanted my computer to be visible.
I upgraded to 14.10 and then to 15.04, and then when failing to send a file over bluetooth to my computer, I found out Visible was off.
I turned it on, and it worked.
However, after a few minutes, it had turned off again.
I can't find a setting anywhere to automatically turn off after N seconds. It would make sense to have that. If there is, it should be accessible through Bluetooth settings.
If such a settings doesn't exist and once turned on bluetooth visibility is supposed to remain on, then there's some bug which is causing it to randomly turn off.
