Try doing googling for this issue. I looked and the bcma driver doesn't
have a bluetooth co-exist flag like the iwlwifi does. I was going to
suggest making sure that was on, but since I don't see that option it'd
be useless.

According to Broadcom:

Do Bluetooth wireless technology and IEEE 802.11 interfere with each other?

Bluetooth wireless technology and 802.11b/g both use the 2.4 GHz ISM
(Industrial, Scientific, Medical) unlicensed spectrum, and in some
configurations can interfere with each other. If the Bluetooth and
802.11b/g antennas are more than 3 meters apart, however, interface in
minimal. Co-existence schemes such as adaptive frequency hopping have
been implemented to address potential interference issues and Broadcom
has introduced its InConcert® coexistence technology, which mitigates
interference problems.

Hmmm. Apparently not in your case. Sorry.
