I have exactly the same problem on My Desktop computer. when I plug my usb drive on the box, it is correctly detected.
I also have a usb hub built-in my LCD monitor, and is I plug the drive in this plug, I have to type lsusb to trigger the detection. output of lsusb when no drive is inserted: Bus 008 Device 002: ID 0424:2504 Standard Microsystems Corp.
