Fingers crossed.

There's the rub. The camera does not require current from the USB line, it just transfers data, but the mount obviously needs current to drive switching transistors or something, and your USB socket and the voltage drop across the cable lenght you are using, can't supply the current required to do it.
Have you tried putting a powered USB hub on the mount?
