Hassio kernel USB bug (ohci-pci: frame counter not updating; disabled)

Installation Home Assistant OS
1

Hello,

I have a Conbee USB zigbee stick connected to an Ubuntu 16.04.6 system (kernel 4.15.0) running Virtualbox 5.1.38 running HassIO 0.87.1 (kernel 4.19.20)

Multiple times per day, Hassio loses ability to communicate with the Conbee USB stick.
In journalctl, I see error message “ohci-pci: frame counter not updating; disabled”. Full error text pasted below.

The issue appears similar to this one described here:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1634737
Except HassIO is running a newer kernel version that supposedly has the fix.

Anyone have any idea how to fix this please?

As a temporary workaround, USB connection can be restored as follows:

# cd /sys/bus/pci/drivers/ohci-pci/
# ls
0000:00:06.0 bind new_id remove_id uevent unbind
# echo -n 0000:00:06.0 > unbind
# echo -n 0000:00:06.0 > bind

Bump…

Any luck with this butako13?

I’m having the same issue, restarting hassio at least once per day is getting old.

For anyone still struggling with the ohci-pci issue when running Home Assistant OS in a VirtualBox VM. Best I can find is that this is an issue related to the timing of frame-counter with USB devices. The timing counter occurs fast (4ms or something), and recognizes the USB as redundant and shuts it down.

Setting your VirtualBox USB settings to USB 3.0: xHCI, should fix this. I made this change from previous USB 2.0 and have not experienced since.

I have same problem. Constantly USB disconnect after period of time.

I have the same issue. Does any one has a solution for this?
