What does "usbconfig list" say about your BT device? Mine is
0x0930:0x021c, which is AR3012 with sflash firmware according to
the Linux' drivers/bluetooth/ath3k.c. Ubuntu users had reported*
similar problems:
"My BT seems to work to some extent.. answers to commands etc.
But it doesn't discover anything
sudo hcitool -i hci0 inq gives nothing.. even though devices
are discoverable."
Which apparently might be solved by updating the card's firmware:

This commit is from 2012, but I'm not sure how relevant it is to
FreeBSD because it seems that ATH_EEPROM_FIRMWARE is disabled by
default in our ath(4); then again, I have no real knowledge about
our drivers and how ath3k/ath9k (BT/WiFi) parts are handled.
