Part of your process is to 'see' if your OS is properly recognizing the 
iMac's BT hardware; that's what the linux BT tools are for.

Then, when you have found proper recognition of the iMac's hardware, the 
iMac and the kb can try to pair. If it doesn't recognize the hw 
outofthebox, you might have to 'enable' the recognition like you did for 
the Mac cirrhus hw w/ a 3rd party script for a kernel module for the sound.
