Booting time dongle auto-detection not happening - usb modeswitch

I have an issue with USB dongle detection. It works as expected if we plug in the dongle after boot. But it fails, if I reboot with the dongle connected. I verified the USB_ModeSwitch log(added below). It seems the USB_ModeSwitch reads the dongle path wrongly. Please help me in resolving this problem.

1. OS Version : Ubuntu 18.04.4 Server LTS (GNU/Linux 4.19.126.mptcp x86_64)

2. USB_ModeSwitch version : usb-modeswitch 2.5.2+repack0-2ubuntu1

3. Also see the USB_ModeSwitch log (/var/log/usb_modeswitch.log) below :
