I am having the same problems highlighted above. I tried installing the fix from the dailies repository (https://edge.launchpad.net/~blueman/+archive/blueman-dailies):

I launch blueman-applet, and the icon that appears says 'Bluetooth: Disabled'. I right click and I right click and select 'Turn on Bluetooth', and nothing happens. I can keep trying to no effect.
