[Pkg-bluetooth-maintainers] Bug#498726: bluez-utils: HID Connection Established but No Data

[Esben Stien]

Package: bluez-utils
Version: 3.36-1exp1
Severity: normal

*** Please type your report below this line ***

I've used my bluetooth keyboard for a while now with no problems, but
after the upgrade yesterday to 3.36-1exp1 it's no longer working.

I think I might have used the hidd tool config in
/etc/default/bluetooth; a tool which is now gone, but I also had my
info in /etc/bluetooth/hci.conf

I have added this to my /etc/bluetooth/hci.conf file: 

device 00:07:61:C3:C1:E3
{
  name "Logitech diNovo Mini"
  auth enable;
  encrypt enable;
}

hcitool scan show the device, but if I try to connect to it with 
hcitool cc <device address>, it only briefly connects to it, it seems. 

The reason I say this, is because right after I issue the hcitool cc 
command, I can see the device with hcitool con, but seconds later, it 
doesn't list it. 

debian-gta02:~# hcitool cc 00:07:61:C3:C1:E3
debian-gta02:~# hcitool con
Connections:
        < ACL 00:07:61:C3:C1:E3 handle 43 state 1 lm MASTER
debian-gta02:~# hcitool con
Connections:
debian-gta02:~#

It seems like a bug since it lists it, then a second later, it doesn't
list it.

Is there some new configuration I need to do, maybe, now with the new
package?
