It should be okay now. That option had been renamed from keyboard to kbd.

This looks strange. I'm guessing that you wanted to log with debugging, and 
perhaps specified -k7 instead of -l7.

Are you able to test this same device on Linux? I'm suspecting that it'll have 
the same problem, but, on Linux, there's a facility (which brltty does use) for 
brltty to tell the kernel to let go of the USB interface. It may be that it's a 
HID device, and that the only way to use it on some platforms is via the host 
operating system's USB HID driver.
