I don't have any answers but I have a similar situation.  My speaker, called 
iWorld, is paired but won't connect:

jerry at Laptop3:~$ bluetoothctl 
[NEW] Controller 00:1A:7D:DA:71:13 Laptop3 [default] 
[NEW] Device 30:21:C8:91:59:86 iWorld 
Agent registered 
[bluetooth]# list 
Controller 00:1A:7D:DA:71:13 Laptop3 [default] 
[bluetooth]# devices 
Device 30:21:C8:91:59:86 iWorld 
[bluetooth]# power on 
Changing power on succeeded 
[bluetooth]# list 
Controller 00:1A:7D:DA:71:13 Laptop3 [default] 
[bluetooth]# discoverable on 
Changing discoverable on succeeded 
[CHG] Device 30:21:C8:91:59:86 Connected: yes 
[CHG] Device 30:21:C8:91:59:86 Connected: no 
[bluetooth]# 

The speaker connects in Windows so it's not the hardware.
