Subject: Re: kernel: xhci_hcd 0000:00:14.0: ERROR unknown event type 37 -
 Kernel 4.19.13

Looks like this particular issue may have been due to a touchy/finicky
connection.

I removed my tuner from my hub and removed the hub from my
motherboard's USB and put my tuner in directly.
It STILL produced the error, but after I put everything back and
played around a little, the errors stopped.

Just to be sure, I also rebooted and it's still fine. No xhci errors at all.
The only thing I've done recently (within the past few days) was play
with my scanner which is also on that hub and maybe brushed my tuner
cable or something.
