The dongle flips its USB ID, and normal service ensues. This cuts power to the module and it reverts to its default state like after a cold boot. > Any ideas what's going on here? Basically the device is semi-reset and ath3k cannot deal with a device in that state. But that doesn't tell us what can be done. Please post "lsusb -v" of your device _before_ ath3k is loaded (you should disable ath3k and btusb for that test) in both states, after cold boot and warm reboot from Windows.
