Sounds similar to:
6875432 Xorg doesn't see newly plugged in USB keyboards after non-root user has
logged in.
The permissions on the newly created devices aren't being set
correctly on hotplug so the X server can't open them. When
the devices exist before you login, the login process does
properly chown() them.
