Trying to turn off bluetooth (which I don't use) through the applet in the top right-hand side panel disables the wireless instead. The wireless won't come back up until I run "sudo rfkill unblock all."

tsj@linux-laptop:~$ lsb_release -rd
Description: Ubuntu precise (development branch)
Release: 12.04

Apt-cache policy indicates there's no bluetooth installed:
tsj@linux-laptop:~$ apt-cache policy bluetooth

  Installed: (none)
  Candidate: 4.98-2ubuntu6
  Version table:
     4.98-2ubuntu6 0
                500 http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ precise/universe amd64 Packages

Howevere, according to the Software Centre the following packages are installed:
- Bluetooth
- Bluetooth Transfer
- Bluetooth Device Setup

My wireless card is Broadcom BCM4313 and I use the proprietary wl driver since the brcmsmac driver works intermittently at best with my chipset.

The same problem occurs with the brcmsmac driver (I unblacklisted and loaded the driver to see what happens): clicking on "bluetooth off" disables the wireless.

For what it's worth, upon login I get a message that bluetoothd closed unexpectedly (see bug #857702).

If any more information is needed I'd be happy to to provided it.
