changed since then. Because of that we won't fix this issue however if
this behavior repeats on a modern version please fill a bug report

Title:
  bluetoothd needs to be restarted to get bluetooth to work

Status in bluez package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: bluez

  This seems to be a regression.
  When I start my notebook, bluetooth is disabled and I switch it on once Ubuntu is started. Until some days ago, the bluetooth symbol appeared in the notification area and my travel mouse worked after a few seconds.
  Since a couple of days, after an update with the update-manager, the bluetooth symbol appears after switching the device on and the bluetooth-applet says it is on, but it is actually off. If I go to the settings, it says it is disabled and there is a huge button to enable it, but clicking it does nothing besides that the button gets disabled.
  When I kill the process "/usr/sbin/bluetoothd --udev" and start it again, bluetooth gets turned on/enabled and all works fine.
