No Bluetooth Found in settings on Ubuntu 16.04, but BT mouse works

Question

When I open BT control panel in options it says:

" No Bluetooth Found. Plug in a dongle to use Bluetooth "

My BT mouse still works. Which I configured following: 741330.

bluetoothctl

Seems to operate as normal.

Any suggestions to fix this issue? (Want to connect my headphones)

Thanks for the reply @Jeremy31. The only issue I got with that is that my headphones only support one BT connection, which makes switching between devices a hassle. — Jarle, Feb 04 '19 at 08:42

Solved the issue:

sudo apt install unity-control-center

For some reason i had previously installed gnome-control-center

Now BT settings are available.
