I'm not sure how you would make md auto assembly wait until after your USB device has been discovered. Hopefully someone else here can provide some advice, although it's not strictly a linux-raid issue there are quite a few helpful people here. I'm pretty sure if you replaced the USB device with another SATA device things would work as you expected. Another alternative may be to not have that array auto assembled but wait and assemble after the boot is finished, this could probably be scripted.
