Hi Samuel,
thanks for your support and sorry about the delayed response. At long
last, I have managed to set up appropriate build environments so I could
do a bit of my own digging.

No output from BRLTTY either, I'm afraid. Please find a log attached.

In my case, neither of them works. By the way, I had to change
configure.ac so as to make building against libusb-1.0 actually work:

The log attached below (libusb-1.0 build of revision 8026) look
perfectly alright to me. You can see that I have switched to and from
terminals and brltty responds as expected, or so it seems, yet there is
no output on my braille device. This makes me wonder whether I can
induce qemu or brltty on the host system to produce some useful logs. Do
you have any suggestions?
Thanks for your help
Elias
