>if i remember correct it work with brltty for android

I assume that that was using Bluetooth, then. I think I know what the problem 
may be. Your device probably does need the Alva driver, but the Alva driver 
only uses the old protocol when using serial I/O.  For the new Alva protocol, 
you'd need to be using either USB or Bluetooth. Note that this is unique to the 
Alva driver - other drivers aren't like that.

The normal case - where, I guess, normal means everywhere else but on Windows - 
is that the device would be accessed directly via Bluetooth. Are you wanting to 
use your BP12 just with brltty, or also with a manufacturer-provided dirver 
which uses the virtual serial port?
