This also caused the bluetooth/detect to fail in Checkbox. That test does the following: command: hcitool dev | tail -n+2 | awk '{print $2}' |grep -E "^([0-9a-fA-F]{2}\:){5}[0-9a-fA-F]{2}$" description: Output address of detected Bluetooth device, if any, or exits with error if none is found. So the checkbox failure is expected behaviour... what's puzzling is why is the bluetoothd and bluetooth applet running? On other systems with no bluetooth, this was not an issue. This is the first system I've tested that did NOT have bluetooth but exhibited this behaviour.
