I quickly looked at the Xorg.log files from launchpad below. Right after hotplug of tablet, usbParse() goes in infinite loop and prints message about invalid serial #. Not positive its infinite loop but at least the log stops with no messages beyond repeating error message. If you wait long enough, perhaps the tablet corrects itself?
Intuos1 and Intuos2 are unique in that they get serial # from hardware itself and used by xf86-input.wacom. Serial # is a unique value that allows tracking multiple tools at once. You've found a case were tablet streams out packets in a way that serial # is sent as zero. Either tablet is saying a zero value or else an if() statement is getting confused and not allowing to init values correctly. This is all on kernel side, BTW. Since I do not own own of these tablets, I do not have much more to offer. I can only say it appears mostly a kernel side bug from information so far.
