What implementation did you use to read the encoder? The ones I've seen use a very short interrupt, and should have any issues with missed ISRs.

Any chance you can share your code or modifications? I should be able to run some timing analysis to see why you're missing counts, and run it by our USB expert when I'm back in the office on Monday.
