I had the same problem with a "nano".

I had many difficulties to find a way to solve it too. Finally this link
helped me
http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-usb/2005-September/001534.html


I patched /usr/src/sys/dev/usb/usb_subr.c as described, compiled my
kernel again and it works...


I'm not sure that it's the right way but it works...
