USB HDDs are only getting recognized after suspend

Hi,

I'm using ubuntu 14.04 amd64 with all latest updates. But the bug also appeared in 12.04 I think.

My external USB Harddisks / USB Storage-Devices are only getting recognized after suspend. But not after a normal boot.

In Windows 7 they are always recognized. So there is a bug.

What information do you need?

Here is the lsusb output, when everything is working fine:
