can't reproduce on arch linux, dev build. If I go to system settings - bluetooth - configure, I can check the visible box and it maintains its state. Perhaps you have some other bluetooth software interferring with the process?

Today I could test it; yesterday I set it to "visible", today the checkmark was gone again.

Update: It just now became invisible on closing the dialog.
