Not Recognizing My Thumb Drive

Is anyone else having this problem? I am trying to access files on my thumb drive using my Transformer's keyboard dock, but it doesn't seem to be detecting it. Normally when I plug in my thumb drive to a computer, it lights up. When I plug it into the Transformer's USB port, it doesn't. Is this a hardware issue, or is it a Honeycomb thing?

I've seen another thread on the Xoom forum saying that Honeycomb 3.2 doesn't seem to support thumb drives. Not that big of a deal for me, as I can always just use an SD card instead. However, if it is a hardware problem, I'd rather just replace the dock.
 
So far I have plugged dozens of thumb drives into my TF and haven't had an issue -- though I have heard that some have had issues since the last update. The possible solution is to reboot the TF with the drive plugged in.

rebooted with the thumb drive in my USB port and it worked perfectly. Thanks for the suggestion!
