Homebrew Homebrew app USB Loader GX Only Works After Running Nintendont

[PredictableFailure]

I know this issue has been asked many times but I couldn't find anything that would work for me.

Issue: When launching USB Loader GX (v3.0 r1281) when I have a Wii U formatted HDD drive plugged in with a second FAT32 formatted HDD in port 0 will get stuck at "Reinitializing devices" and I have to pull the plug out to restart the system.

Workaround: If I run Nintendont (v6.489) first and exit back out when it gets to the "SD - USB" selection and then run USB Loader GX everything works perfectly and I am presented with the Wii & Gamecube games on my HDD.

I followed the wiiu.hacks.guide to install Aroma then hack the vWii. I am launching USB Loader GX & Nintendont from the Aroma Boot Selector but choosing vWii Homebrew Channel.
The HDD is FAT32 formatted with 32k cluster, I converted it to use MBR, I have transferred Wii games using Wii Backup Manager and the Gamecube iso I moved over myself.
Everything works correctly when the the Wii U formatted HDD is disconnected. This issue occurs if it is plugged in via the back port 1, either of the front 2 ports or even via a USB hub.

Any advice would be gratefully received.

I have also tried this with WiiFlow Lite (v5.5.4-1) and the same issue happens here. If I load the app first from the Home Brew Channel I don't even see the WiiFlow logo and have to pull the power cord out to restart the Wii U. If however I start Nintendont (v6.489) first and the open WiiFlow everything works correctly.

I've also just tried the older USB Loader GX (v3.0 r1271) and the same issue occurs, this time freezing at "Initialize usb device". Again loading Nintendont first and the launching USB Loader GX makes everything work perfectly
