Did you end up finding a solution? I also had hot-plugging issues and added my solution to a [post](https://forums.balena.io/t/x11-hotplug-usb/7250/36) that others have linked previously. The missing part for me was ensuring I was adding extra mount commands in my `Dockerfile` as described in [this post](https://forums.balena.io/t/device-in-dev-does-not-appear-on-reboot/373510/2).
