What kernel are you running? Is it a 2.6? I still use 2.4 series and have not ever had a USB hang like you describe. Since hotplug started taking care of USB I've not had a problem. Also, what distro are you running? This may make a difference because of what packages are included as part of your GUI environment and what default services are running.

I was running 2.6.9 and am currently using 2.4.28 on my gentoo system while I enjoy my USB mp3 player. I'm going to wait until 2.6 becomes a bit more mature as work is eating up most of my spare time.
