I think I may have found the issue and it relates to the USB Hub I am using with the computer. Prior to the 1.22.0 firmware update for PodGo, I was able to use my usb hub with no issues. Now after trying various things, I have realized that it is the powered USB hub that is interfering with the PodGo startup. I preceded to unplug all the peripherals from the Usb hub and plugged the pod go directly into my computer and viola, it works no problem. Just an FYI that this may be the issue, at least it was for me.
