Greetings,

I have noticed a problem with my USB hub and using a USB headset. This problem has persisted through my old USB headset to the new headset I just bought the other day.

Whenever I used a VoIP program, such as ventrilo, while having a USB headset plugged into my hub, the USB ports...ALL OF THEM, seem to temporarily die and them power back up. The mouse goes dead, the USB hub goes dead, and the keyboard goes dead as well.
This happens only when I use the VoIP and either disconnect Ventrilo or close it down. It's only occasional that this happens and not all the time.

Again, this only happens with the USB hub I am using and does not happen if I use the USB port on the case or the USB port on my keyboard. Is this an issue with the hub or perhaps just a bug in general?
