You never specified a clock rate for it, so it might actually be wrong.
The default clock rate would be something "around" 32 kHz, but not very
accurate. Meanwhile the WiFi module would have very specific requirements
on frequency and accuracy of this clock. The WiFi part doesn't seem to
care that much, but the Bluetooth part cares very much. It doesn't work
or it would seem to work but you don't get anything off the radio if the
frequency is off (as in off-frequency).

Could you wait until I get my RTC changes out? I also have some Bluetooth
patches for AP621x, which is what started all this RTC work, which you might
find interesting.
