Public bug reported:

Previous version of Ubuntu worked with my USB Bluetooth dongle (I used
it for Bluetooh mouse).  However 140.4 LTS onwards is detecting the
device, but the device cannot be enabled in any Bluetooth manager.

Linux Asus-N56V-Ubuntu 3.16.0-45-generic #60~14.04.1-Ubuntu SMP Fri Jul

BUS 003 DEvice 006: ID 0a5c:2039 Broadcom Corp. BCM2045 Bluetooth
....

>hciconfig hci0 up
Can't init device hci0: OPeration not permitted (1)

>hciconfig -a
TYpe: BR/EDR Bus: USB
BD Adress: etc etc...

Have noted that this issue is common to several varieties of Bluetooth
adapter, but raising this because this specific adapter did work in
previous versions of ubuntu (64bit 12.10)
