bluez hcitool on ubuntu

I have built and installed bluez 5.21 on ubuntu 14.04 witout problem (see for example this recipe).

My nrf51822 EK dongle PC10000 is not recognized by hcitool:

hcitool dev
Devices:

the USB part seems ok:

[673299.888157] usb 2-1.2: new high-speed USB device number 7 using ehci-pci
[673299.981021] usb 2-1.2: New USB device found, idVendor=1366, idProduct=0105
[673299.981027] usb 2-1.2: New USB device strings: Mfr=1, Product=2, SerialNumber=3
[673299.981031] usb 2-1.2: Product: J-Link
[673299.981034] usb 2-1.2: Manufacturer: SEGGER
[673299.981037] usb 2-1.2: SerialNumber: xyz
[673299.981283] cdc_acm 2-1.2:1.0: This device cannot do calls on its own. It is not a modem.
[673299.981328] cdc_acm 2-1.2:1.0: ttyACM0: USB ACM device

What could be the problem? May Someone reports that hcitool works as expected on ubuntu with nrf51822 development dongle?

Greetings Attilio
