The sym53c8xx module is indeed loaded; my guess is that the kernel is allowing it to probe. I do have SCSI disks, so I don't think I can just rmmod the module (I tried and it claimed it was in use, even though I had my USB device unplugged at the time).

It is not clear to me what the precise order of processing is with regard to the hotplug scripts and how that interoperates with kernel-level device detection. Pointers?
