F23 : DBus.Error.NoReply: can't enable bluetooth.

[sean darcy]

On a dual boot lenovo laptop, bluetooth works on windows, but not fedora.

The kernel finds bluetooth:

dmesg | grep Bluet
[   16.369045] Bluetooth: Core ver 2.21
[   16.372683] Bluetooth: HCI device and connection manager initialized

[ 4974.462459] Bluetooth: RFCOMM socket layer initialized
[ 4974.462525] Bluetooth: RFCOMM ver 1.11

But on boot I get a dialog box:

org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.NoReply: Did not receive a reply. Possible 
causes include: the remote application did not send a reply, the message 
bus security policy blocked the reply, the reply timeout expired, or the 
network connection was broken.

and bluetoothctl doesn't scan;

Any help appreciated.

I think I got a similar message when I turned off the
bluetooth transmitter via a switch on my laptop.  It
was the "Error In Progress" that I recall.

Yes, but this is dual boot machine. BT works under windows, so it's not 
a hardware issue. Also, BT and wireless share the same hw switch. 
Wireless works fine under F23, only BT fails.
