Unfortunately, 138a is the vendor Id for Validity Sensors Inc.
It's listed as DigitalPersona device by a mistake.

Validity uses DigitalPersona software to drive the device, but they have their 
own 
USB filter drivers for the device on Windows.

Check these:

We all have been fighting to get these devices supported under fprint, 
but, it's still not done yet.
