I have a problem with a phone that's attached via USB to one of my systems.
It works fine for weeks or months, then drops off the bus for no apparent
reason.
To fix it I have a cron job that monitors the connection from time to
time. When it sees that the phone isn't responding it unloads and
reloads the associated USB modules:
/sbin/rmmod cdc_acm
/sbin/rmmod ohci_hcd
sleep 5
/sbin/modprobe ohci_hcd
/sbin/modprobe cdc_acm
sleep 5
The phone is the only device attached to this hub. If you want to try
this you'll need to check which modules are associated with your UPS.
