I have confirmed that this does not happen in Jessie. The conditions are as follows.

Kernel version:
Linux debian 3.16.0-5-686-pae #1 SMP Debian 3.16.51-3+deb8u1 (2018-01-08) i686 GNU/Linux

Related packages:

ii  gir1.2-gnomebluetooth-1.0      3.14.0-2         i386   Introspection data for GnomeBluetooth
ii  gnome-bluetooth                3.14.0-2         i386   GNOME Bluetooth tools

ii  libwebkitgtk-3.0-0:i386        2.4.9-1~deb8u1   i386   Web content engine library for GTK+

NOTE: Since GNOME in Jessie cannot start up normally with vnc4server or tightvncserver,
 I used TigerVNC server downloaded from https://bintray.com/tigervnc/stable/tigervnc/1.8.0
 to confirm this.


However, this still happens in most recent Wheezy. The conditions are as follows.

Kernel version:
Linux debian 3.2.0-5-686-pae #1 SMP Debian 3.2.96-3 i686 GNU/Linux
