[Bug 1382490] [NEW] Broadcom Bluetooth [413c:8143] does not work at all

 

Public bug reported:

CID: 201307-13942 Dell Latitude E5540

The Bluetooth can't find any devices.
Error message could be found in dmesg:
[   98.149145] Bluetooth: can't load firmware, may not work correctly

Note that sometimes it works, but if you disable and re-enable it with
the wifi slider (let it reload the firmware), it will stop working.

Steps:
1. Install 14.04.1 + update (3.13.0-37) + proprietary Broadcom driver
2. Try to pair with any other Bluetooth device.

Expected result:
* Bluetooth works well as expected.

Actual result:
* Nothing can be detected.
