Bug Description

Binary package hint: bluez

I have seen the other reports and do not think this is a duplicate.
I do not file this by means of ubuntu-bug because of bug 538097.

First I enabled the bluetooth device in the bios,
but still no success.

lsusb finds one:
# lsusb | grep -i broadcom
Bus 003 Device 004: ID 0a5c:4503 Broadcom Corp.
Bus 003 Device 003: ID 0a5c:4502 Broadcom Corp. Keyboard (Boot Interface Subclass)
Bus 003 Device 002: ID 0a5c:4500 Broadcom Corp. BCM2046B1 USB 2.0 Hub (part of BCM2046 Bluetooth)

dell Wireless Tool does find the device:
# sudo dellWirelessCtl --st_bt
Radio Status for Bluetooth:
        Bluetooth enabled at boot
        Bluetooth supported
        Bluetooth enabled
        Bluetooth installed
        Bluetooth controlled by wireless switch at boot
        Bluetooth runtime switch control currently enabled
        Status Code: 0

But hcitool does not find a device:
# hcitool dev
Devices:

bluetooth-applet says that my computer does not have any Bluetooth adapters
plugged in.

There is no bluetoothd running:
# ps ax|grep -i blue
 2459 ? S 0:00 [bluetooth]

# dmesg | grep -i blue
