You're right, the supply is kept on by other things, so this isn't the
problem.

The difference to those other HID devices is GPIO 99 - the reset pin,
which is configured pull down input from boot - i.e. the chip is held in
reset.

When the HID device is being probed, pinctrl applies &ts0_default starts
driving it high, bringing the device out of reset. But insufficient time
is given for the chip to come up so the I2C read fails.

If you later try to probe again, 200ms has elapsed since the reset was
deasserted (driven high).
