I have now changed installed a four-port USB PCI card and it is working
very well.
Disabled the USB controller on the motherboard - so there either is a
hardware issue with the MCP78s chipset that causes USB port problems, or
there is something with Linux causing the problem.

nvidia is no longer sharing an IRQ with the USB controller and instead, ivtv0
is sharing it. the PVR-150 (which is the ivtv0 device) is working well without
any problems while continuing to use the Bluetooth-attached device to the USB
along with the USB printer attached.
