I think I hit this the other night, and just chocked it off to
some problem on my set up.  I plugged a USB stick into a build
box to splat a Chromebook-Snow/arm image on and nota, the usb
stick did not show up.

I just unplugged it and plugged it into another socket without
looking and boom, it showed up.  Now that I go look at where
I was plugging this in the first connector was a USB 3.0, the
second was a USB 2.0.

The machine is running FreeBSD-12.0-CURRENT-amd64-20180118-r328126
