I believe that this is the same as Debian bug 302990: http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=302990 Hopefully an upgrade to udev 0.56-2 will fix it (when that gets into Ubuntu)?
In the meantime, a workaround that works for me:
# get a root shell
sudo bash -l
# change the hotplug mechanism to /proc/sys/kernel/hotplug:
echo "/sbin/hotplug" > /proc/sys/kernel/hotplug
# plug in your USB device now. wait a few seconds...
# now revert your hotplug script to what it was before:
echo "/sbin/udevsend" > /proc/sys/kernel/hotplug
exit
