I wonder (and will try this shortly).. Insert and remove an SD card might trigger a rescan.

(A few minutes later)

No go...
It seemed to scan the SD card but not the root of the Kobo.

As soon as I attatched / detached it, it scanned.

Next experiment. Attach to a power source and unplug.

(A few minutes later)

Yes... that worked. So as long as you have a USB charger you can attach to the Kobo you can force it to do a rescan after doing a Bluetooth xfer to it.
