Expanding on what liyaoshi just posted. I remember someone else having a similar problem but with a different device. His solution was to cut the power wire feeding back from the USB hub back into the beaglebone. However, as said above he / she used a different device, and the device its self was not showing up at all under lsusb output. Also, I'm fairly sure the USB hub was self powered.
