Deco goes red/dead when USB port is used

After latest FW upgrade, one of my 3 Decos started having problems, displaying a solid red LED.
After plugging power out and in again, it would work for a few hours or a day.
I did a factory reset on it, same behaviour.
I then tried unplugging IKEA trådfri gateway, which prior to FW upgrade had been used without issues for a long time while being connected by network and USB cables to this Deco, and the problem was resolved.
Now our IKEA lights are on 24/7, and the WiFi network is stable.
Obviously we would prefer being able to plug the IKEA gateway back in, but if M9 is no longer able to support powering an external unit via USB, we will have to get an extra socket and power the gateway through a dedicated power supply.
Hopefully the problem is not caused by having the gateway connected by the network cable. I have not been able to test this since I don't have another power source at the location as yet.
