It is not a BlueZ problem but a device itself, with the BlueZ stack the 
chip uses to forget its BD_ADDR.

AFAIK for example another devices could not connect to it, moreover the 
fact that a device identifies itself as 00:00:00:00:00:00.

Looks like, but I fear its too late for the the device. Would help a lot if 
it can take again a valid BD_ADDR. The HCI_USB driver behaves different for 
this device it casts a reset hci command on it, before the intialitation 
commands. May there is a point to look at but you are talking over UART...

> Is this a common problem for this chip?

I had this problem, I could not make it get its previous BD_ADDR

thanks,
