[Bug 1276267] [NEW] Bluetooth works, but System Settings can't turn it on

[Matthew Paul Thomas]

Public bug reported:

gnome-control-center 1:3.6.3-0ubuntu45.2, bluez 4.101-0ubuntu8b1, Ubuntu
13.10

1. Open System Settings > Bluetooth.
2. If Bluetooth is off, at a terminal, turn it on using "sudo hciconfig hci0 up".
3. At a terminal, "bluez-test-adapter list | grep Powered"
4. Turn off Bluetooth.
5. At a terminal, "bluez-test-adapter list | grep Powered"
6. Turn on Bluetooth.
7. At a terminal, "bluez-test-adapter list | grep Powered"

What happens:
3. Powered = 1
5. Powered = 0
7. Powered = 0

What should happen:
7. Powered = 1

This does not happen on every machine, but it's reproducible on mine.
