Please provide a link to the output of lshal (don't attach it because it
could be pretty big).  My guess is the property string or capability
string is wrong or the older hal doesn't support bluetooth.  Have you
tried it on newer versions of HAL (note newer version of the D-Bus
Python API's are quite different so you would need to change your
program slightly).
