I applied the patched /lib/firmware/intel/ibt-hw-37.7.10-fw-1.80.2.3.d.bseq as mentioned by @7oby in comment #4 on Ubuntu 16.04.3. No Joy. My control, is a newer:

[ 9.468054] iwlwifi 0000:02:00.0: Detected Intel(R) Dual Band Wireless AC 7265, REV=0x210

but the patched firmware seems to work just fine. (I have rolled back to the original, however.) Hardware is Intel NUC NUC5i5RYH.

Bluetooth has been working fine with my primary bluetooth speaker since I first installed 16.04 shortly after it was released. As of sometime in the last two weeks it sometimes works and sometimes doesn't. The problem appears after I have to reboot. A few days ago, it wasn't working and I just gave up and used a cable. But then at some point after another reboot it started working again. Today it stopped again (no updates during this whole time).

Gotta love intermittent HW-related problems. ;-)
