Description

I don't know if this is intended, but in juno beta when a new device is discovered **Pair** button is showed. On clicking it the button changes to **Disconnect** and subheading to **Disconnected** but only momentarily. The button then shows **Connect** and subheading shows **Paired**. So, I have to click connect again to actually connect my Bluetooth headset.

In summary, it takes two clicked and a wait in between to connect a headset in elementary, while on gnome 3.28 on 18.04 it takes only one click.

Bluetooth Chipset: rtl8723be
Bluetooth Headset: iBall Powebeats.
