I have also had problems getting a Broadcom  BCM20702A0 "Media Link BT4.0 Adapter" working with the simulator.  It was working, at least, as an alternative to the BT peripheral on my iMac with Lion (though I never tried it with the simulator then.)  I recently tried getting it to work with the simulator while running Mountain Lion with no luck.  I'll try with an older Macbook Pro that still running Lion and see what happens there.

The symptoms that I see when I try to active Bluetooth on the simulated iPhone is that the spinner on the Bluetooth switch in preference just endlessly spins.  I also notice when looking at the system log on the host OSX system, these messages when I try to turn on Bluetooth:

8/3/12 3:39:02.062 PM Preferences[85917]: BTM: setting discoverable status enabled
8/3/12 3:39:02.063 PM Preferences[85917]: BTM: setting connectable enabled
8/3/12 3:39:02.063 PM Preferences[85917]: BTM: enabling device scanning
8/3/12 3:39:02.064 PM Preferences[85917]: BTM: failed to start scanning with error 111

When I back out of the Bluetooth settings inside the simulator:

8/3/12 3:39:56.756 PM Preferences[85917]: BTM: setting discoverable status disabled
8/3/12 3:39:56.757 PM Preferences[85917]: BTM: setting connectable disabled

When I pull the Broadcom USB dongle out of the hub:

8/3/12 3:40:07.935 PM blued[99380]: kBTXPCUpdateUserPreferences gConsoleUserUID = 501
8/3/12 3:40:07.000 PM kernel[0]: **** [AppleBluetoothHCIControllerUSBTransport][WaitForControllerPowerStateWithTimeout] -- commandSleep() returned error 0xE0000001 (kIOReturnInvalid) -- this = 0xffffff802d21b000 ****
8/3/12 3:40:07.000 PM kernel[0]: [IOBluetoothHCIController::setConfigState] calling registerService

When I try to turn bluetooth on inside the simulator without the bluetooth dongle, I get similar errors:

8/3/12 3:49:44.189 PM Preferences[85917]: BTM: setting discoverable status enabled
8/3/12 3:49:44.189 PM Preferences[85917]: BTM: setting connectable enabled
8/3/12 3:49:44.190 PM Preferences[85917]: BTM: enabling device scanning
8/3/12 3:49:44.190 PM Preferences[85917]: BTM: failed to start scanning with error 111

What's curious is that the dongle seems to have been discovered, judging by the errors logged when I pulled it out.  And the vendor/product IDs seem to be listed in the /System/Library/Extensions/IOBluetoothFamily.kext/Contents/PlugIns/BroadcomBluetoothHCIControllerUSBTransport.kext/Contents/Info.plist file.  Before I disabled the nvram switch, I was able to use the dongle (at least running Lion, after adding the vendor,product ID values to the driver Info.plist file).  At present:

# nvram -p|grep blue
bluetoothHostControllerSwitchBehavior never

Any thoughts on how to get the simulator running on Mountain Lion using XCode 4.5?

Thanks!

Same observation here with that dongle and a thunderbolt MBP on Mountain Lion.

I have the same result with you after upgraded to Mountain Lion, I am using a 2010yr Mac Book Air and a CSR dongle.

I recently upgraded to Mountain Lion, and I have found that the Cirago BTA8000 does not seem to work anymore even after running: "sudo nvram bluetoothHostControllerSwitchBehavior="never""

I have also confirmed that my System Information shows the Bluetooth Vendor ID shows 0x5ac as described in the Technical Note2295. I am running a new MBPR, and I've tried all the attached USB ports along with the ones on my second monitor. Can anyone advise?

Thanks in advance,
