Question Random device disconnect sounds?

[Thebird777]

Randomly I would hear a device disconnect sound. If I'm in a game there would be a small lag spike after it. I used USBDeview to find out whats causing it but The device in question is just called USB Input Device. I tried uninstalling it but the sounds keep happening. This is driving me mad!

That's a plus.

1. What is the Brand/Model of computer?
2. What brand/model is the powered USB hub?
3. Is the USB hub USB 2 or USB 3?
4. Are there any USB 3 devices plugged into it?
5. Is the user trying to charge any phone or other devices through this hub?
6. Do you have another one around that you can swap it out with to see if there is a problem with the hub itself?
7. Have you tried Safe Mode to rule out any joke/malicious programs?

I've encountered some early USB 3 ports on some motherboards that had software and drivers that installed and there was software that ran on startup. Not saying that's the case, but something to consider.

1. In Safe Mode, I would unplug all but the keyboard and mouse, plug those two directly into the computer to see what the results are.
2. If the problem persists, in Safe Mode try plugging them into a different hub on the computer, if available, so if they were in the back then try them in the front.
3. If the problem still persists, in Safe Mode swap out the mouse with a new one (different brand/model if possible) and repeat #1 and #2. If no problem, then the mouse was contributing and you can start trying to put things back the way it was one thing at a time and see if the problem comes back.
4. If the problem still persists, swap out the keyboard with a new one (different brand/model if possible) and repeat #1 and #2. If no problem then the keyboard was contributing. Swap back to the original mouse and see if the problem comes back.

If that doesn't fix the issue, it was in Safe Mode, so no joke/malicious programs should be running. Maybe uninstall the USB drivers and reinstall. Also, search for USB/Chipset driver updates.
Some USB 3 devices don't particularly like being plugged in USB 2 and some USB 2 devices don't like USB 3. Consider that if you are further testing devices and you run into a problem when adding an additional device.
Have you tried spreading the devices across different USB ports on the front/back (or both sides if it is a laptop), both with and without the USB hub installed?
That's all I can think of from every experience I got from Techgara.

I find that the easiest way is to go into Device Manager via Control Panel and see what flashes up on it to see what's trying to disconnect/connect.

Or disconnect everything and connect things one by one. Now this can depend on how frequent the disconnect sounds happen so you can determine what it is you're plugging back in that is causing the issue.
