Hello JotaU,
Similar behavior can occur on account of particular USB hubs.
Third-party USB hubs may incorrectly disconnect after wake from sleep, causing system instability

Some third-party USB hubs and devices connected though them may disconnect unexpectedly after the computer is woken from sleep. This may cause unexpected behaviors such as general system instability within open applications, or data loss if a connected device was being used to store data from an open document. If a printer was connected through the third-party USB hub, it may not be recognized.
See the linked article for proposed resolutions.
Cheers,
