No - it is a device exchange.
GEOM only has problems with media exchange.
A new device is no problem for GEOM.
Your problem is very likely not GEOM related.

You get a new device and all layers are freshly setup.
That is get's the same device numers as the old is unrelated, it's
still a new device after all.

You should see why your disconnect doesn't work.
Do you run recent RELENG_5 or -current code?
Disconnect the device and "ps -axl | grep usb" - you will see the
usb threads - each host controller has one of them.
Normaly idle usb threads should wait in usbevt and usbtask should
wait in usbtsk - see what it is in your case.
