This is reported against an old version of Ubuntu and many things has
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
against it and we will take it from there.

** Changed in: bluez (Ubuntu)

Title:
  bluetooth devices fail to connect prior to account login

Status in bluez package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  Description: Ubuntu 12.04 LTS
  Release: 12.04

  $ apt-cache policy bluetooth

  Installed:  4.98-2ubuntu7
  Candidate:   4.98-2ubuntu7 0

  Found in Oneric and ports to Precise- on Mac-mini 2011: Once logged in
  with a wired mouse & keyboard, I can use a bluetooth mouse & keyboard
  just fine. When the system reboots, Bluetooth works through Refit and
  grub. At the login screen, bluetooth connection is dormant. I tried
  pairing the devices as root. This helped stabilize the connection,
  i.e., once a device was paired it would stay paired through reboots.
  Prior to that, I would login with a wired Kb and have to re-pair the
  Bluetooth devices.

  Also, turning on auto-login to bypass the login screen and go directly
  to account did not work. The Unlock Keyring Login screen  showed I
  wasn't logged in and the paired devices did not work. However, an
  unpaired device was recognized.
