Hi, I have made a clean installation and I have seen that the problem is in /proc/bus/usb/xxx (see your output lsusb command):
kaizen:/proc/bus/usb/002 # ls -al total 0 dr-xr-xr-x 2 root root 0 Feb 9 12:21 . drwxr-xr-x 6 root root 0 Feb 9 12:21 .. -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 43 Feb 9 12:21 001 -rw-rw---- 1 root nobody 52 Feb 9 15:50 002 002 must have (or your usb port) 660 root:nobody permissions to function. But when you reboot suse 9.3 the permissions change and you have: -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 52 Feb 9 15:54 002 I have changed and it function. I'll try to do in a script.
