[Bug 420456] [NEW] bluetooth confusing menus, cannot do OFF-ON-OFF cycle

[GeorgeVita]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: gnome-bluetooth

Bluetooth menus (clicking icon) are changing in a confusing manner and
you cannot do an OFF-ON-OFF cycle as the 'Turn off Bluetooth' selection
disappears after first usage :

This is not an actual 'bug' as nothing crashes. It is like a
malfunction.

Easily reproducible with the next actions:

- Boot PC, checked via Bios setup (F2) that all onboard peripherals are enabled
- Boot 9.10
- Click on Bluetooth icon shows all selections black (can be used) and only the first one gray ('Bluetooth on' as it is already on)
- Click to turn it OFF
- Clicking again to icon a completely different menu appears, where you cannot see 'Turn on', but you can use 'Preferences' and then click on a 'large button'
- From now you cannot turn Bluetooth OFF till a reboot (no menu selection or button)

My system is updated dist-upgraded till today. Searching this forum I
did not found any similar note.

kernel: 2.6.31-999-generic #200908271000 and 2.6.31-8
Package: gnome-bluetooth Version: 2.27.8-0ubuntu1

Searching forums read a fix: 'use blueman!' but as gnome-bluetooth  is
the default I preferred to report it.

Regards,
George
