[Bug 2063078] [NEW] USB devices not detected

[Thomas Schweikle]

Public bug reported:

In some cases the kernel does detect a newly connected USB device, but
this device is never handled by systemd. The device handling shows up in
dmesg, but no device /dev/sd.. entries are created to access this newly
connected storage device.
