Usb-c flash drive not recognizing

I Just bought the new 12 inch macbook with retina. I am very happy with but I'm having some issues with two flash drives i bought on Amazon. Sometimes, they recognize and sometimes they don't then I reboot

and they work fine. Is this happening to anyone else? How can I fix this?

MacBook (Retina, 12-inch, Early 2015), OS X El Capitan (10.11.5), Space Gray

Others have noticed the same thing. Here are two threads you could look at. To my eye there has not been a single solution that works for most of the people with this problem. I do recommend that you report your problem to Apple directly though I imagine that they are aware of it.
