Yes, very depressing. This is why people use Macs. But there is no way I am going to use a Mac's OS and this is free and open software so I would like to get to the bottom of this. I just read through this entire issue and https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=638117#c9 and it appears this is now a true upstream with gnome-bluetooth. It also appears to be related to those with an actual hardware wireless radio or bluetooth kill switch. This may explain why it works for certain people.
This is present in Ubuntu 14.04 with bluez 4.101-0ubuntu13 and gnome- bluetooth 3.8.2.1-0ubuntu4 and not sure it matters but I also have indicator-bluetooth 0.0.6+14.04.20140207-0ubuntu2. I got this with a dpkg-query -l "*blue*" in case anyone else is wondering what versions they are running. ps.
