After a while (~30 1 minute acquisitions or ~8 30 minute ones) my program can't 'see' the device (it uses libusb10) any more (it reconnects each acquisition for $REASONS). Also pretty weirdly usbconfig can't see it either(!).

Does it mean that the file descriptor opened for ugen has a chance to
be closed ?
I suspect that usb subsystem tried to destroy the device but some internal
refcounting prevents it. Proper use of destroy_dev(_cb)(9) avoids
the issue.
