From what I could find after an hour of digging through USB specs is that that line is actually supposed to use 2V signals. (Though it's possible I misread.) So the faulty dock is even worse!

For the switch to tolerate 6V on that wire is already a healthy buffer. How hard is it to keep things 5V or less on the data wires of a USB device?
