USB Keyboard and Mic not connecting

Hey everyone,

Been having a issue with my USB Keyboard and USB Mic.

When I plug them into my MacPro 5,1, they will not turn on or work. The system overall does not seem to see them. Even when looking at the hardware report, the USB ports are there, but nothing appears to be connected. I need to keep them plugged in, and restart my Mac for them to work finally.

I can even pull the hardware report, see them connected, unplug them, see the report show them removed, and plug them back into the same port, and the system will not reconnect them.

Odd part is USB Thumb drives, External drives and even my iPod Classic don't have this issue. Just plug them in and they work fine. iPod even charges just fine as well.

My guess is there is some security or permissions issue with external control devices (Keyboard, Mic, Camera, Mouse, ETC).

Any advice would be appreciated.
