OK I'm thinking of the way serial ports work now. This machine has a possible 6 USB / uchi (I think) ports to use. (thinking out loud) Is it possible to turn off 1 or more of the ports, and free up an IRQ I'm looking at the book now.... OK now you can set the USB to have only 2 ports enabled. I believe from what the book shows "all enabled" is the default If you only need 1 USB device select 1 USB Port See if that works and let me know.
