Wireless Tether Force Closing

So I've been using Fresh 2.3.3, and everything is working great. However, Wireless Tether won't start. Whenever I use it - it force closes. This is actually the first time I think I've tried it. I don't remember ever using it on the earlier version of Fresh rom I had.

This only seems to happen when trying to connect through bluetooth. I can start the program, access the menu and settings and all of that - but as soon as I press on the big green wi-fi icon to start tethering - it force closes. The USB mode seems to work fine... but I need to use bluetooth mode.

Is there a trick to this? Or a conflict anyone knows about?
 
I would like to bump this post, I am seeing the exact same issue. I remember getting bluetooth to work one time after I had installed 2.3.3 but I have yet to replicate the functioning results. I have nandroided back to my original fresh install and am now completing a full re-install of Fresh and waiting to see what happens now.

Update:
After installing a 100% New Fresh 2.3.3 I still receive Force Close when trying to start the Bluetooth tethering.
