As far as I know, Macs don't have this problem. Those trying to solve it in Linux might try to understand how Apple addresses it. With some luck, the Apple approach is in the open source part of MacOS, making it easy to study. Windows users might approach Microsoft saying that other OSs have solved the problem, why does your OS still have it?

Plenty of instructions on the interweb, including this which I had a

For Linux users, you can use "udev rules" to do the same (and more.)

I have no idea re MAC's, but you could ask about the issue on any of the
*BSD mailing lists.
