Unable to connect to multiple devices (Ollie and/or BB-8)

I resolved this by commenting out ble.stopScanning() in /adaptors/ble.js. Please see this commit for the exact change. jongio@788e944

You can either make that change locally or you can use my fork.

My systems:

• Linux 4.10.13-1-ARCH x86_64 GNU/Linux (Some intel in-built wifi/bluetooth chip)
• Linux 4.9.25-1-ARCH armv71 GNU/Linux (0a12:0001 Cambridge Silicon Radio, Ltd Bluetooth Dongle (HCI Mode))

On both: [email protected], [email protected]

Needs:

I want to connect to two BB8s.

Problem:

I have the same results as above.

With one script attempting to connect to two ollies, some sample output might be:

# node Test.js
Ollie2 connected
noble warning: unknown peripheral xxxxxxxxxxxx
# node Test.js
Ollie1 connected
# node Test.js
Ollie2 connected
# node Test.js
Ollie1 connected
noble warning: unknown peripheral yyyyyyyyyyyy
# node Test.js
Ollie1 connected
Ollie2 connected

The first system doesn't show the warnings. When applying the aforementioned hack, both peripherals are unknown.
