[Bug 974556] [NEW] bluetooth file browse non-functional

[Steve White]

Public bug reported:

This is Ubuntu 12.04 running from a stick.
I set a bluetooth phone to be "visible".

In Ubuntu 10.10 I could pair with the phone and browse files there.

System Settings -> Bluetooth ON
    Sucessfully pair with phone.
Dialog says 
    Connection ON
    Paired YES
click Browse Files...
    **** nothing happens

So try clicking the bluetooth icon on the top bar.
Browse Files on Device...
Select device to Browse...
see phone in list, click it.
click Browse
    **** nothing happens

I really use this functionality, and I know I'm not alone.
Please make sure it's fixed before release!

And...please don't bug me about reporting this twice.  The Ubuntu bug
reporting facilities are a catastrophic, insane mess.  If it gets any
worse, you will find yourselves bug-free!

Gracias!
