Try unloading the USB modules before standby (probably manually at
first, but it can be put e.g. in /usr/sbin/apmd_proxy if you use apm or
whatever the appropriate ACPI event script is when you use ACPI):

        rmmod hid
        rmmod uhci_hcd
        rmmod ehci_hcd

After resume, reload them:

        modprobe ehci_hcd
        modprobe uhci_hcd
        modprobe hid

and check if that helps.
