I think this issue is closed as far as I'm concerned. The problem was
indeed interference between Bluetooth and WiFi access points. I found
that the issue of Bluetooth vs WiFi has a number of articles, complete
with recommendations.
I use the plural in the latter because I found I'm surrounded with APs
in this apartment complex, and some of them are putting out higher power
than mine dies (Asus).
Why the interference would cause Bluetooth support to crash out the way
it did may be worthy of study by someone who knows more about the inner
workings of the driver. For example, why would the driver disconnect
from D-Bus when interference exceeds a specific level?
