Bluetooth regression with headphones

Hi all,

I reported a regression in connecting my Nokia BH-905i headphones in
June this year (https://lkml.org/lkml/2011/6/23/770), which was the same
problem Keith Packard reported in https://lkml.org/lkml/2011/6/9/63.
It was briefly fixed in
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/padovan/bluetooth-2.6.git.

Unfortunately it regressed again by the time of the linux-3.0 release,
to something with similar symptoms: the headphones won't reliably
connect to my laptop unless I freshly re-pair them. However, unlike the
original bug, they will very occasionally connect normally, though I
don't know why.

This behaviour has been consistent since 3.0 up until the current
3.1-rc6 kernel.

What further information can I provide? How can I help debug this?

Thanks,
J
