Thank you for your answer. I didn't have the opportunity to test until
today, and unfortunately I couldn't try this. There is no file
usb2_hardware_lpm for that device. It's possible the device doesn't
support this feature.
Do you have an idea of what else could go wrong with this device?
Here is the complete lsusb -v output for that device, it may help:
