Comment 26 for bug 1242079

I'm affected too. This is my "dmesg" log:

[ 6511.928736] usb 3-2: new full-speed USB device number 13 using xhci_hcd
[ 6511.948071] usb 3-2: New USB device found, idVendor=0a5c, idProduct=21e8
[ 6511.948083] usb 3-2: New USB device strings: Mfr=1, Product=2, SerialNumber=3
[ 6511.948089] usb 3-2: Product: BCM20702A0
[ 6511.948094] usb 3-2: Manufacturer: Broadcom Corp
[ 6511.948098] usb 3-2: SerialNumber: 00190E124F47
[ 6511.952833] Bluetooth: can't load firmware, may not work correctly

"sudo rfkill unblock bluetooth" did nothing for me. I also reinstalled "gnome-bluetooth" and nothing happened.

Bug is still marked as "Incomplete" but no more info is requested and still remains "Unassigned".

I own a Targus USB dongle and I found this bug marked as "Expired":

I marked it as a Duplicate of this current bug (not branded).

As you can see in the other bug comments, bluetooth worked in previous kernel versions (3.9.0-030900rc3-generic). Something went wrong with ubuntu 13.11.

Thank you in advance and, please, request more info in order to help to solve the problem.
