        It could be that sixad isn't running. You could try this quickly to see if it fixes the problem.

        From the wiki entry:
        For bluetooth pairing to persist between reboots you need to make sure sixad is executed during startup. Exit EmulationStation and and edit rc.local.

        shell
        sudo nano /etc/rc.local
        Add sixad --start & before the line exit 0 and save (ctrl-x then y)
