Public bug reported:

Network Manager says either "Device not ready" or "wireless is disabled by 
hardware switch" (it depends).
Enabling Bluetooth in the control-center just enable it for like half a second 
and then it's switched off again.

I have a combined hardware button for both Wifi and Bluetooth, it's red when 
it's disabled and blue when enabled.
In this case it stays red even when I repeatedly press it (though the Bluetooth 
setting panel reliably indicate when it is hardware disabled, so I guess the 
color is only related to software lock).

I manage to make it work again after playing with "rfkill
[block|unblock] all" and messing around with network manager (disabling
network and then re-enabling it...). I usually need around 5 minutes to
make it work.

I did not have this problem on Raring. I had it on saucy with the 3.10
kernel but it seems to be worse with 3.11 (I need to mess around for
more time in order to make it work again).

Feel free to ask if you need any additional test.
