Title:
  Ubuntu 12.04, i386, cannot use rfcomm as regular user. Permission
  denied.

Status in “bluez” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  After updating from 8.04 to 12.04 I cannot use rfcomm without sudo.

  I've already added the user  to group 'dialout' .

  Temporary I tried to change udev.rules (KERNEL=="rfcomm[0-9]*", GROUP="dialout", MODE="666")  but this doesn't
  solve the problem so I removed it again.

  Here the commands I used :

  burki@orion:/$ hcitool scan
  Scanning ...
   00:12:6F:08:98:FF	GEO LE-71 00001

  burki@orion:/$ rfcomm connect 1 00:12:6F:08:98:FF
  Can't open RFCOMM device: Permission denied

  burki@orion:/$ ls -l /dev/rfcomm1
  ls: cannot access /dev/rfcomm1: No such file or directory

  burki@orion:/$ groups
  burki adm dialout fax cdrom floppy tape sudo audio dip video plugdev fuse scanner lpadmin netdev sambashare

  burki@orion:/$ sudo rfcomm connect 1 00:12:6F:08:98:FF
  Connected /dev/rfcomm1 to 00:12:6F:08:98:FF on channel 1
  Press CTRL-C for hangup

  In another terminal while connection is running ...

  burki@orion:/$ ls -l /dev/rfcomm1
  crw-rw---- 1 root dialout 216, 1 Jun 19 09:01 /dev/rfcomm1

  burki@orion:/$ UDEV_LOG=debug udevadm test $(udevadm info -q path -n rfcomm1)
  (I've stolen this command from another bug report #570692.  Output is very long. Please see attachment)

  WORKAROUND: sudo chmod u+s /usr/bin/rfcomm
