That's an okay workaround but not the best solution. Do you have
/dev/.udev ?

I ask because the check we do in Squeeze is based on the presence of
/dev/.udev. Not the best one. If that path is not existent, we do not
settle for devices. Apart from that, I cannot see anything else causing
the issue.

Do you have the resources to check the same on the current version in
Wheezy / Sid ?
