Okay.

Out of interest how do you hotplug it? :)

In case of S3 the BIOS also configures the hardware before entering
suspend. On client at least it's suspend-to-idle and any interrupt will
bring the CPU and the system out of it. It could be that that's the reason
you don't see any issue if this is server system and it goes into full S3?
