Um, I think you missed the point.  The whole idea of the test is to see 
what happens while the controller is unbound from the driver.  Binding 
it again defeats the purpose.

How do you reach that conclusion?  The log above shows only one webcam
on bus 4: device 2, attached to port 3.  There is another webcam, yes, 
but it's on bus 3, not bus 4.

You should unbind the controller and leave it unbound.  _Then_ wait for 
the next occurrence.
