I have recently received a major update to the kernel that included a number of fixes that referenced Bluetooth. I have also have updated to 4.28 of the various Bluez modules. Previously only Bluez 3.26 along with Blueman would work. This new combination is working.

I still keep the Dell Bluetooth radio switch off until the desktop is loaded.

Now for some more weirdness, sometimes my Multisync calendar sync stops, however if I start anyremote on the phone and link to the PC, then the Multisync process will start working and keep working for as long as Anyremote is connected.

Next re-boot it just works normally. There may be a Kernel issue - but sometimes I wonder if the phone is also not playing its part.

Upgraded the following packages:
bluetooth (4.27-intrepid~ppa1) to 4.28-0ubuntu1~git20090125
bluez (4.27-intrepid~ppa1) to 4.28-0ubuntu1~git20090125
bluez-alsa (4.27-intrepid~ppa1) to 4.28-0ubuntu1~git20090125
bluez-cups (4.27-intrepid~ppa1) to 4.28-0ubuntu1~git20090125
bluez-gstreamer (4.27-intrepid~ppa1) to 4.28-0ubuntu1~git20090125
bluez-pcmcia-support (4.27-intrepid~ppa1) to 4.28-0ubuntu1~git20090125
bluez-utils (4.27-intrepid~ppa1) to 4.28-0ubuntu1~git20090125
