I looked at Aldo's script.txt. He's still putting usb in upper case. <sigh>

The ps command shows that brltty is running.

A good temporary test is to rename /etc/brltty.conf to something else 
(/etc/tempdestroy for example). That way you know it's not getting in the 
way. Then restart the system. The -q switch in the ps output in the script 
shows that /etc/init.d/brltty is being executed so you should have no 
problems anymore.

Another thing you can do is look at the settings on the computer you use to 
ssh into the laptop. If it's working there then compare (don't change 
anything) the files on the two computers and let us know what the 
differences are.
