I've encountered a similar thing happen on Linux as well with my
Laptop and both a midi controller by M-Audio and a Terratec Phase26
USB card. They don't like a certain port, that is, although the get
recognized there by the drivers it is impossible to use them there. I
didn't look into it too much yet, because the fix is easy by just
using a different port, however I think it could be related to the
compatibility translation from USB2 to USB1 not fully working here.
