The dongle gets suspended when it's not being used.  Apparently you run
some program that uses the dongle at 5- or 10-second intervals; this
causes the device to wake up and then be suspended again.  It looks like 
the dongle can't handle more than a few cycles of this -- after 5 cycles 
it stopped working entirely.

You can change the autosuspend delay by altering the value of
USB_AUTOSUSPEND_DELAY in the kernel source file drivers/usb/core/usb.h.  
For example, setting it to (HZ*60) will cause the suspend to happen only
after 60 seconds of inactivity.

Or you can prevent USB devices from being suspended entirely by turning 
off the CONFIG_USB_SUSPEND setting.
