Confirmed, using Hardy and a MSI BToes 2.0 EDR Micro Dongle.
After startup hcitool scan reports:
Device is not available: No such device
and hcitool dev is empty

sudo /etc/init.d/bluetooth restart
starts the device, however hcitool scan gives:

Scanning ...
Inquiry failed: Connection timed out

The command:
sudo hciconfig hci0 reset
makes it working perfectly (for connecting my phone at least), however after each reboot I have to restart bluetooth and reset hciconfig manually again. I will try out the above mentioned patch and report whether it was successful or not.
