Hi all,
finally I got round to looking at the first update to 16.04 LTS, which is supposed to be a better version than 16.04 on all accounts. However, I seem to have come across a scenario where the opposite is the case: Bluetooth.
My system is a Thinkpad T510, it comes with an integrated Broadcom Bluetooth device. My main OS is still Ubuntu MATE 14.04, but I have a second partition with plain Ubuntu (15.10 currently), because I needed a more recent kernel at one point in the past. My intent is to pair the Bluetooth device with a Logitech BT Audio adapter attached to my Stereo equipment for better sound quality.
The pairing worked on 14.04, but I was unable to redirect the audio output to BT, the BT device just did not show up as a target. I blamed that on the early days status of UM 14.04 and tried 15.10. Sure enough it worked and thus seemed to back my theory.
Now I tried UM 16.04.1, booted from a DVD in “try out” mode. It did not work in the sense that it did not detect the Logitech for pairing. I tried the original 16.04, and to my surprise it worked. So I went back to 16.04.1 and tried to analyze the cause of the problem. I gathered all the entries from syslog that have “bluetooth” in them. Here they are:

No doubt there is something wrong. I cannot make out the root cause, however, but it seems to have been introduced by 16.04.1. Can someone in the know take a look at this, please?
Cheers
