Have you tried it with all devices in the front sockets removed to see if
it makes a difference?

Kicking the onboard sockets is less likely to work than those on a hub.
If you have a hub then move the mouse to it.

Putting !USBKick in the boot sequence would eliminate the need to operate
with a mouse but it doesn't look as though it will help in this case.

I guess you could try unplugging the EHCIDriver which should then
softload USB2 as with 5.11. Short term fix rather than a permanent
solution though. I don't have 5.12 so I don't know if that might cause
other problems.
