Maybe some initiation has to happen over ehci for it all to work
properly.  Weird.

Interesting finding!

I guess your USB scanner has its own power supply
(some USB scanners get power via USB only)
and you kept it connected to its power supply
while you exchanged its USB connection to the
above listed computers?

In this case I also think some specific initiation
inside the scanner has to happen to make it work.

Or did you also disconnect your USB scanner from its
power supply so that it was completely switched off
each time when you exchanged its USB connection?

I am neither a USB expert nor do I use a Raspberry Pi
but I am interested what the root cause could be
why sometimes some scanners don't work with xhci_hcd,
cf.
