Further investigation revealed that the problem seems to be in userspace: various kernels including a 2.6.32.y-based and 3.1.8-based one reproducibly exhibit this behavior with a Debian wheezy userspace and do _not_ exhibit the problem in Debian squeeze, Ubuntu 11.10, or Fedora 16. More results:
* The problem does not seem to be udev: downgrading udev in wheezy does not make the problem go away, and upgrading udev in squeeze does not provoke trouble.
* The problem does not seem to be firmware-atheros: upgrading the firmware in squeeze does not provoke trouble.
* The problem does not seem to be usb-modeswitch, for similar reasons. (You can see us grasping at straws here.)
I guess the next natural component to blame is bluez.
Any hints (e.g., debugging switches) for tracking this down?
Thanks, Jonathan
