This sounds unrelated to usbguard. Did you try stopping the usbguard daemon and see if it still happens? Your problem sounds more like broke ACPI settings or missing ACPI compatibility. I have seen this sometimes when playing with powertop.

I'm having something similar to this. A keyboard and a mouse that work, then don't, then come back.

Can't find which log to tail to see what's wrong. Would it be possible that there are non-permanent rules at play, or a different set of rules between my user and root ?

@arthurlogilab I would recommend using powertop to disable (!) all the power saving features temporarily to see whether the problem will disappear. I am quite sure USBGuard is not related to your problem at all (except that it also affects the USB stack). Instead, I think your issue is caused by overly aggressive power saving features or incompatible (bad quality) hardware/firmware.
