As you pointed out, no difference except device numbers.

You got me, HAL?  Bugzilla will be a new adventure for me.  :-)

I tried the above anyway with no difference.

Thanks for your efforts.  I'll look into reporting it via Bugzilla.

Perhaps resolved is a poor choice of words, but bug #204396 has been reported 
and it seems to be exactly what I'm experiencing.  From what I have gleaned 
with a quick visual scan of the report, they will either do a patch for FC6 
and/or make the fix permanent with FC7.

Thanks again James.

This is not a tragic bug, only a minor annoyance.
