Has anyone else had an issue using a USB Bluetooth device, and if you turned off the motherboard Bluetooth, the USB didn't work either? That happened to me when I was using it, at least. Now, I haven't tried since then, so I could be wrong now.
There's sometimes conflicts when both BT devices have the same supporting chipset. It's why I don't like integrated wifi on motherboards - I can't upgrade the thing to a newer spec due to hardware conflicts that arise (blame Intel and their drivers)
On Linux I managed to disable the motherboard's Bluetooth because it showed up as a usb device and then I'm able to use a dongle just fine.
