If you set XDG_CURRENT_DESKTOP=GNOME and then run gnome-control-center from the 
command line you're just running unity-control-center instead. This isn't 
making gnome-control-center work, it's just running a different app. When I go 
to /usr/share/applications in Terminal I see two separate files:
gnome-control-center.desktop and unity-control-center.desktop
In PCManFM they both show up as "System Settings". You don't see the unity 
version in non-Unity desktops because it has the line "OnlyShowIn=Unity;". I 
created a new version of this file and called it:

unity-control-center-LXDE.desktop

Then I modified it so it would show up in my LXDE menu. I also added it
to my task bar, so now whenever I want systems settings I run the unity
version. Now all my bluetooth problems have gone away as I can run
"Bluetooth" from the Hardware section of system settings, then go right
to "Sound" and switch to my headset speakers.
