Public bug reported: When plugging an external sound card into USB3 ports on my ASUSTeK P9X79 motherboard, lsusb hangs and the usb device no longer works. If I plug the sound card into a USB2 port, lsusb does not hang but the device is not detected and there are 0 messages printed in dmesg.
bash$ strace lsusb -v munmap(0x7fa344ff3000, 4096) = 0 open("/sys/bus/usb/devices/usb3/descriptors", O_RDONLY) = 6 read(6, It hangs on this read and Ctrl-C cannot kill it until I unplug the usb device. This device was working until maybe 1-2 months ago, I believe when signed UEFI kernels started getting pushed to LTS although that is just a guess on my part. I've tried falling back but I can't find a kernel that works anymore. bash$ uname -a 3.13.0-74-generic x86_64 bash$ lsb_release -a No LSB modules are available.
