> I don't see any major decoupling around the USB connectors on my board.
5V is decoupled on the board with a 47uF cap before the polyfuse. Its
really up to the USB device for anything after the fuse. Keep in mind
that you can't just put a large cap and expect to solve the problem.
The cap needs to have a reasonably low ESR, otherwise you'll need
multiple caps in parallel.
The majority of USB devices we're probably tested on PC's with large
200-400 watt power supplies (vs your 10 watt 5V supply), the engineers
that designed your USB device probably never thought to decouple 5V on
the device itself and are in-effect somewhat violating max current
draw on the USB device, if only for a few microseconds.
