Where were you pulling power from? I assume the joyport LED outputs. If that is the case, there is no way the O/I can provide enough power for the Chicklet, and the USB device. 200+mA up to a MAX of 500mA. The LED drivers are current limited to 10mA each. The Chicklet will require more than what the joyport can provide regardless of the source.
