That doesn't answer my question.  If no devices are plugged in (either 
at boot or during normal operation), and then you plug in a device like 
a flash drive, does it get detected?  What you wrote seems to imply that 
it does not.

You mean that only devices in the first group are affected by this bug?  
Devices in the second group are always detected correctly regardless of 
what else is plugged in?  (This contradicts what you wrote above.)

Still, you are right that this does not seem like an insufficient power 
problem.
