Package: gnome-bluetooth
Version: 3.18.1-1
Severity: important
Dear Maintainer,
* What led up to the situation?
I upgraded to gnome-bluetooth 3.18.X and it has persisted ever since.
* What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or
ineffective)?
* What was the outcome of this action?
* What outcome did you expect instead?
Every time I toggle bluetooth off through the GUI (or applet), it soft-blocks my
sony-bluetooth switch (as it should) and removes the hci0 switch. But, when I
turn it on, it un-soft-blocks sony-bluetooth and creates the hci0 switch
properly, but that switch is soft-blocked still. This switch should be
un-soft-blocked when I toggle the bluetooth to the "on" position as well. Since
it stays soft-blocked, It then shows remembered bluetooth devices (and the
toggle appears in the "on" position), but attempting to connect to a remembered
device fails immediately (clicking the toggle does nothing). Therefore, I have
to manually issue a "sudo rfkill unblock bluetooth" from the terminal. Once I
have done that, bluetooth works as desired... until I toggle off and on again,
in which case, rinse and repeat!
I can issue a "sudo rfkill unblock bluetooth" every time I toggle my bluetooth
on through the GUI menu to effectively fix the problem. But, this is not how the
package should work.
