A number of 'lsusb -t' issues were fixed in the 015 release of usbutils,
so maybe update?
that being said, the -t option is a totally different codepath in the
tool, and shows different things overall. -t shows the drivers that are
bound to the different interfaces, which means that a single device will
show up multiple times in the -t option.
Here's the output of the two things on my local laptop, with just a few
USB devices in it:
$ lsusb

and then if you give the -v option as well you see a bit more:
$ lsusb -tv

What are you seeing missing in your output?
