Can you draw a schematic of the power supply showing how you connect and disconnect the power. Also show how you connect to the 5v from the USB which (I presume) should power the circuit when there is no mains-derived power.

Note that I am most interested in the regulation you've used and where you're switching power on and off. Have you tried switching between your regulator and the circuit to see if it makes a difference?

How do you prevent your power supply from feeding back into the USB power, and how do you prevent the USB power from feeding back into your power supply?

Can you also note if the disconnect happens when you turn off power or when you reconnect. Is it immediate?

@Arouse1973, knowing that implementation matter in an electronic project is already a nice learning for an engineer.

Please can you supply another picture looking down on the whole circuit and as close as you can to get a clear picture. We really need a circuit diagram as soon as you can.
