[    3.430752] usb 1-1.3: string descriptor 0 read error: -22
[    3.432247] usb 1-1.3: New USB device found, idVendor=0cf3, idProduct=3004
[    3.433711] usb 1-1.3: New USB device strings: Mfr=1, Product=2, SerialNumber=3

That's an Atheros Communications, Inc. and it sits between:

	3002  AR3011 Bluetooth
	3005  AR3011 Bluetooth

So it's probably going to be that BlueTooth device you mentioned.

Do you have the ath3k driver (CONFIG_BT_ATH3K) compiled?
