That doesn't sound right. If you re-plug the device, the kernel usbhid driver will claim it again, but running test_libhid (or libhid- detach-device, also included in libhid) should make lsusb show the descriptor.
Are there any errors in dmesg? Do you have read+write permissions to the device node (in /proc/bus/ usb or /dev/bus/usb)? What does "cat /proc/bus/usb/devices" say?
