turning off bluetooth kills the applet

[Anmar Oueja]

Steps to repro:

1. Boot from cold boot
2. Right click the Bluetooth applet
3. Uncheck the "bluetooth" option to turn off bluetooth
4. Applet disappears from the top bar
5. Open Systems Preferences
6. Select Bluetooth
7. Toggle the on/off switch. Button reflashes and reverts to off position and the following is displayed in /var/log/syslog

Status changed to 'Confirmed' because the bug affects multiple users.

In my case the log output is slightly different, I assume because my only paired device is a mouse, rather than an MTP player in Anmar's case:

Another interesting note - while turning bluetooth back on through the settings window fails for me in the way Anmar described, turning it on with my laptop's airplane-mode button works, so below a certain layer the bluetooth stack is working here.

Just to confirm that as of now, 2013.10.02 at 17:57 issues still exists.

This will help:
start console.

sudo modprobe btusb reset=1
sudo rfkill unblock all

I greet all zVID
