Public bug reported:

I have a strange problem with webcams Creative Live! Cam Sync HD VF0770 
(041e:4095).
I have two of them.
I would like to stream simultaneous streams with 1280x720 at 5fps.
When connected directly to laptop, I can do this, actually I can stream the 
same resolution at 30fps.
But, when I plug both of them using USB hub (Gembird 7-port USB2.0 powered 
hub), I can stream one camera.
But when starting the second one, the dmesg throws error

uvcvideo: Failed to submit URB 0 (-28).

and the mjpg-streamer shows

Unable to start capture: No space left on device

However, the USB for both cameras seems to be set at 480Mbit - this is the 
output of lsusb -v -t

        |__ Port 4: Dev 21, If 0, Class=hub, Driver=hub/4p, 480M

I tried lowering the resolution for both cams to 320x240, minimum fps for the 
camera is 5, so I can't go any lower than that.
Can anyone, please, point me out how can I investigate this problem further?
