Title:
  lsusb different device id when using usb hub

Status in “usbutils” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Description:	Ubuntu 13.10
  Release:	13.10
  usbutils:
    Installed : 1:007-2
  ----------------------------
  I was configuring a game controller to work with xboxdrv.
  So I first executed lsusb with the device connected directly on a pc usb port :

  Bus 002 Device 002: ID 8087:0024 Intel Corp. Integrated Rate Matching Hub
  Bus 002 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0002 Linux Foundation 2.0 root hub
  Bus 001 Device 006: ID 0810:0003 Personal Communication Systems, Inc. PlayStation Gamepad
  Bus 001 Device 002: ID 8087:0024 Intel Corp. Integrated Rate Matching Hub
  Bus 001 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0002 Linux Foundation 2.0 root hub
  Bus 004 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0003 Linux Foundation 3.0 root hub
  Bus 003 Device 003: ID 046d:c52b Logitech, Inc. Unifying Receiver
  Bus 003 Device 002: ID 1a40:0101 Terminus Technology Inc. 4-Port HUB
  Bus 003 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0002 Linux Foundation 2.0 root hub

  The controller appears as 'Bus 001 Device 006: ID 0810:0003 Personal
  Communication Systems, Inc. PlayStation Gamepad'

  Then when I execute lsusb whit the device connected through an
  external usb hub :

  Bus 002 Device 002: ID 8087:0024 Intel Corp. Integrated Rate Matching Hub
  Bus 002 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0002 Linux Foundation 2.0 root hub
  Bus 001 Device 006: ID 0810:0003 Personal Communication Systems, Inc. Batoh Device / PlayStation 3 Controller
  Bus 001 Device 002: ID 8087:0024 Intel Corp. Integrated Rate Matching Hub
  Bus 001 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0002 Linux Foundation 2.0 root hub
  Bus 004 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0003 Linux Foundation 3.0 root hub
  Bus 003 Device 003: ID 046d:c52b Logitech, Inc. Unifying Receiver
  Bus 003 Device 002: ID 1a40:0101 Terminus Technology Inc. 4-Port HUB
  Bus 003 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0002 Linux Foundation 2.0 root hub

  The controller appears as 'Bus 001 Device 006: ID 0810:0003 Personal
  Communication Systems, Inc. Batoh Device / PlayStation 3 Controller'

  This last id is the one know by xboxdrv and I was able to configure
  the controller.

  Any idea about this behaviour ?
