So, having /proc/bus/usb empty might be a bug (or at least an
incompatibility), which is easily fixed:
http://linux.derkeiler.com/Mailing-Lists/Debian/2004-07/345index.html
http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=622964

I couldn't find any additional information on this issue though (when
and why it happened, etc).

Unfortunately that fix didn't help my problem (I'm opening a separate
thread, because I don't think anymore it's a USB issue).

Thanks,
Dav
