But the other problem I've had with sys-usb is connecting to external

Try adding irqpoll to the end of your kernelopts in qvm-prefs sys-usb.
Had similar behavior with my Corebooted AMD. Please let me know if it
helps you. I think root cause is IRQ setup table issues in Coreboot,
but
I'm not sure yet how to confirm or fix.
Unfortunately it doesn't seem to have changed anything. My kernel opts
are currently set to:
dom0] qvm-prefs sys-usb
...
kernelopts - nopat iommu=soft swiotlb=8192 irqpoll
...
I rebooted sys-usb and am trying to copy a backup to an external USB
drive and getting the same pauses and low transfer rates (if not worse
actually).

Thanks for the suggestion though.
When it is not recognizing devices, the Qubes Devices Widget shows an
additional device: "sys-usb:2-1:1 - 138a_003c_0030009d7e88". It is not
visible when everything works fine. Do you have that as well?
Lorenzo Lamas:
I do not get this 'ghost' device. I either get none or a partial list of
what should be there.
But that is promising that your USB 3.0 works fine, maybe I should try
installing an additional USB card. I currently have the onboard usb
slots on the motherboard and a couple built into my case. They seem to
behave similarly. Though in the past sometimes switching between them I
could get things to show up. That was back on Qubes 3.2 though and have
found rebooting to be the more effective solution when things aren't
recognized at all.
