Is this just one system or a range of boxes? I just ran it on 2
different ones running CentOS 7 and it worked fine there. If it is
just one particular hardware then look through the lshw man page and
try the versions of something like

lshw -disable usb

to see if it still happens. [It might require other tests also.]
