In 16.04 you can see a hint in dmesg. The file needs to be in cd /lib/firmware/brcm and named BCM.hcd .
The file can be found here:

If you run sudo modprobe -r btusb && sudo modprobe btusb
it should load. There are some issues with the profile too.

Since there are some existing files in /lib/firmware/brcm there, there must have been a mechanism to fix it that was started by someone.
for now the above is a workaround, it would be great if this gets structurally fixed.
