USB Devices timeout on boot

I am having to wait for almost 2 minutes each time I boot for my usb devices to get detected. This only started happening recently after an update.
I dual boot windows and my peripherals work fine there.
dmesg log: here

Kernel release: 6.10.8-arch1-1

Re: USB Devices timeout on boot

Since this is a windows dual-boot, you should eliminate the possibility of windows interfering with your devices on linux by Disabling Windows Fast Startup, if you haven't done so already.

Also, if you are just disabling it now, make sure to reboot to Windows, then to linux, then back to windows for the changes to take effect.

If that's not it and the LTS or older kernels aren't affected, figure what that device is (you can also check older journals)

Re: USB Devices timeout on boot

I think I have found the issue. I did have to disable fast boot on windows but that did not affect anything. Then I looked for the device 1-5, 'lsusb' did not show me anything. I then realised, I actually have a cheap USB bluetooth dongle installed, never worked on linux. Removing that and rebooting no delay everything worked perfectly well.

Is it possible for me to leave the device plugged in and not experience this delay? Because the delay has come up only recently.

Re: USB Devices timeout on boot

Unplug the device, run "dmesg -w" and replug it.
Do you still get -110 and -62 errors?
