bluetooth headset gets imitatively disconnected

I upgraded from artful to bionic (just run apt update && apt upgrade and rebooted before testing the below) and since then my sennheiser pxc550 was immediately disconnected after a connect.

[...same message a few more time until I had a new version installed ...]

I since then applied the patch from https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1534857 -> https://marc.info/?l=linux-bluetooth&m=151801178209679&q=raw to bluez (apt source bluez -> patch -> dpkg-buildpackage ... > sudo dpkg -i ../*.deb) and now my headset works again.
