Also experiencing this problem, on a pristine install of ubuntu 16.04.1 LTS (4.4.0-45-generic #66-Ubuntu SMP, BlueZ version 5.37) onto a NUC6i5SYH.
I am doing nothing on the box, just setting it up. The only packages I've installed are for sshd and bluez. First run of the bluetooth service worked (well, discovery worked, though I was unable to successfully connect to the discovered lenovo edge keyboard). After reboot, bluetooth service is failing same as others report: ---------------------------------------------------------- ``` Oct 27 09:07:15 jukebox bluetoothd[1695]: Bluetooth daemon 5.37 Oct 27 09:07:15 jukebox bluetoothd[1695]: Starting SDP server Oct 27 09:07:15 jukebox systemd[1]: Started Bluetooth service.
