it seems that the usb bus fails to enumerate some devices for time to time. 
This could be model dependent, e.g. my 10V sometimes has problems to see the 
3G modem. I tried to fiddle a bit with the bus parameters but got no positive 
result.

Are you running from AC? If yes, can you please shutdown the device, remove 
the AC and plug in the battery only (if it isn't already) and start again? 
Does the lsusb output change?

Greetings
