After a small walk and some oxygen I thought about that users had to be in different groups to work with devices.
The bug of the Users Administration tool forced me to add a new (second) user by the command useradd. But of course the memberships of group must be registered too.
So after I had opened /etc/group I discovered that the new (second) user was nowhere in groups.
After I edited groups I was able to work with local usb device at the two clients with different users.
