Yes, I would suggest upgrading if possible before assuming that your 
Brailliant is defective. I have a brailliant 40, and iirc brltty 5.3.1 
worked with my display if it was started manually after the display was 
attached, but trying to have it start automatically via udev would make 
brltty abort.
