It kind of negates any advantage of autosuspend while the device is actually
used. My tests showed that autosuspend on btusb either works well with
active connections or not at all.

Matthew, you can set the RESET_RESUME quirk for your test
device. If it works after that, it cansupport only a limited form
of autosuspend.
