MHL, OTG and Charging 5-in-1 kit

I have the following setup:

- a Samsung Note II N7100, model SGH-i317M
- a HDTV Adapter MHL and OTG Card Reader (which came in a green box)
- a mini USB hub or splitter ( the peanut)
- a USB wired keyboard via a blue USB extension cord (about 2 meters long)
- a Apple wired mouse (in white)
- a Verbatim USB 2.0 thumb drive (32 GB), White and Green
- a 5.0V charger providing 2.0A of current to the HDTV adapter. (the charger is not shown in the photo)

I have a HTML cable connected to a 24-inch TV. The HTML connection works flawlessly. Sounds and audio are all fine on the TV. The MHL connection works great.

The Samsung Note II appeared to be charged by the Adapter (albeit rather slowly).

The problem is with the OTG USB connections. I believe the USB devices are receiving power. The mouse has a red beam of light underneath it. However, the mouse and keyboard are non-responsive for at least half an hour. The cap-lock LED light would not come on when i pressed it. The mouse is totally non-responsive even though there is a red beam of light underneath it. The Samsung device does not recogize any of the USB devices: mouse, keyboard or thumb drive.

But after about 30 to 45 mins of plugging all the mouse and keyboard to the setup, everything starts to work. Suddenly "Mouse connected" "Keyboard connected" appear on the Samsung notification. The USB thumb drive is recogized too!!

I am so confused. Why do I need to wait for so long for things to work.

Maybe I missed something? What should I do? thanks.

I tried skipping the USB splitter/hub and instead plug the mouse or keyboard directly to the adaptor. It's the same.

I also tried changing the USB Charger from 2.0 A to 1.5A. It's the same. No change in behaviour.

Maybe the sequence which I plug the devices is important?

Please help.
