What does "ls -l /proc/bus/usb/003/032" give you for permissions? I
also suspect that the line in /etc/fstab is not going to affect
anything until a new initrd is built, and may not help then. The USB
file system is mounted in the initrd. (This is why is does not show
up when running mount, but does show up when running "cat
/proc/mounts".)

You could try something like:

mount -o remount,devgid=515,devmode=664 none /proc/bus/usb usbfs

I have not tried it, as I use a udev rule to set the permissions on
a specific device instead ofall USB devices.
