Followed Joseph's advice and installed both linux-image and linux-image- extra packages from ...~jsalisbury...
NOW: ~$ uname -a Linux Cake 3.16.0-31-generic #41~lp1352821v1 SMP Fri Feb 20 20:52:34 UTC 2015 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux But unfortunately this had no effect on Bluetooth's ability to find any devices. Situation is still the same as in my post above. Everything seems to work ok, WiFi actually works, Bluetooth doesn't see any devices. I've tried to connect mouse and phone, no luck. Same devices connect correctly to another Ubuntu laptop.
