I've had this same problem for a couple weeks now. After a little digging I believe that the likely culprit was introduced in 2.6.19. From that kernel's changelog:

FWIW, there appears to be another "bluetooth firmware" check-in, to 2.6.21-rc2, which may already fix the issue. I'll test that out next :) -- bcm203x firmware will not load https://launchpad.net/bugs/85247 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
