That is because when you have 1V drop there, you have the same 1V drop on the GND line (given they have both the same wire gauge), and when that happens, the host cannot communicate with the far end slave because the slave isn't able to pull the GND line to 0V. Instead, it pulls to 1V as seen by the host, which isn't sufficient. I strongly recommend to use a thick-gauge GND wire instead of playing with the supply voltage.
