It appears this bug is due to a proposed change: bluez (5.37-0ubuntu5.2) xenial; urgency=medium
[Simon Fels] [Guilhem Lettron] [Cyrus Lien] * debian/main.conf: - Set AutoEnable parameter to true. (LP: #1510570) * debian/50-bluetooth-hci-auto-poweron.rules: - Get rid of legacy udev rule to power on bluetooth controllers on startup. Using hciconfig for that is the legacy way and will lead to different problems as the kernel side stack wont initialize all needed subsystems when used. BlueZ introduced a replacement for this with 5.36 which basically tells the bluetoothd through a config option to turn on all found Bluetooth controllers by default. With changing this there should be no change in terms of functionality.
