Basically, plug it into a USB hub that actually implements USB2.0, then
power cycle the port when it hangs. It does seem to be a hardware
problem with the USB controller.
Finally an idea;-) I had the same problem for a couple of years but since I
use a [1st gen] appleTV as the server, I thought it might be it's USB port.
I bought a `plugable USB2-HUB-AG7' and experimented a bit. So far, I did not
get it to turn the power to devices completely off:-( But the unbind/bind
seems affect the devices somehow. I tried it with a little Sparkfun RedBoard
(Arduino clone) and when I [re]bind, the RX/TX LEDs flash shortly, so it
seems to reinitialize it's USB-Serial chip. Maybe that's enough?
The same TX/RX LED flashing happens with the hub-ctrl power off->on;-)
OK, the USB hub is now installed between the aTV & USP ;-) Let's see what
happens next.
I also bought a USB2-HUB-AG7, but the new black version (of the *same*
model# - arrrrgggghhhh) no longer implements PPPS. Only the old silver
version does. What is the point of a model# if you can't count on the
functionality?
