First, thanks very much for your suggestion. I have made several tries to
get it to work, but /dev/ubt0 never gets created. After realizing that I
needed to do an etcupdate to get the iwmbtfw.conf installed, I do see the
device shown during the system startup.
ubt0 on uhub1
ubt0: <vendor 0x8087 product 0x0033, class 224/1, rev 2.01/0.00, addr 2> on
usbus1

"service bluetooth start ubt0'" generates an error of "/etc/rc.d/bluetooth:
WARNING: Reset failed, retrying."

I feel like I have simply missed something basic, but have not been able to
figure out what. I have double checked the patch that was not in the main
patch, but in the text specifically for the AX211
