>Neither log shows brltty actually trying to access a braille device. 

Correction! It indeed shows this, including that a HandyTech Active Braille was detected. It's also showing a "missing acknowledgement" log, which is what was happening when brltty wasn't running with admin privileges. There weren't enough enabled log categories to see if it was trying to report "no attachable console", though, but my guess is that it was. So I think the issue is that the service isn't running with admin privileges.
