Issues with flash USB drives and KVM

I'm using an IOGear CGS1734 usb KVM switch with a Dell
2405FPW monitor.  The monitor has a USB hub built into it,
through which I've attached my Logitech Cordless Comfort Duo
mouse and keyboard.

The monitor also has CF and memory stick readers built into it.

The issue is that when I switch the KVM, the USB flash drives
come and go...  And I end up seeing something like:

Oddly, this happens only on a VIA Epia SP-13000 running FC3
(updated).  But I haven't seen it on an MSI 7142 (K8MM-V)
motherboard also running FC3 (in x86_64 mode).

Any ideas about what I'm seeing and what the work-around is?

Thanks,

-Philip
