Bluetooth Broadcom BCM20702 does not load firmware (driver issue) - 14.04

Solution 1:

To fix the issue of firmware not working for a Broadcom Bluetooth you need to perform two steps (1) see: Bluetooth Broadcom 43142 isn't working, and (2) uninstall 'Blueman'.

In my post I already worked through Pilot6's fix (step 1); but my bluetooth device was still not playing music (Was connected but still not playing music). Next I uninstalled blueman using software center:

At this point do a restart. After the restart there will only be one bluetooth logo (instead of two) enter image description here

At this time pair the chosen device as usual. Now when you go to sound settings, you will see the Bluetooth device.

A massive thanks to Pilot6, first for posting a working solution, and second for responding when I asked for help. Thank You! Too bad the blueman software breaks the firmware used by the O/S, the blueman interface is really nice. Well problem fixed.... Hope this is of help to you.
