Pär: This most certainly does not have anything to do with the length of the cabling. But your front ports might be no native USB ports but internal USB Hub ports. This however is just something I suspect to be the reason for the bug. However, unless some developer has a look at that or at least advises me, how to verify my theory, this will just stay speculation.
