Tried that.  The usb_get_report_desc() returns NULL.  This is not a
complicated device --- it's not even technically a "human interface"
device.

I wanted to try to avoid that since I use many USB devices, but it's a
last resort kind-of-thing.

The documentation for the device describes the interface as simply
using the two interupt endpoints (read and write).
