[Bug 1212287] [NEW] bluetooth will not reconnect after first disconnect

 

Public bug reported:

Bluetooth had been working well for me until recently. I'm running
Ubuntu 13.04 with a bluetooth USB dongle that I use to pair with various
headphones.

Suddenly, after the first successful connection to the headphone, once I
disconnect either from the headphone side or the computer side, the
headphones will no longer reconnect.

I've found that to reconnect, I need to

     stop bluetooth;rmmod bnep btusb rfcomm bluetooth ; start bluetooth

then remove and reinsert the bluetooth USB dongle. Then I can reconnect.

I've been using the same hardware for quite a while and this problem is
very recent.  The only software changes are by the patches which I
always accept.
