Awesome! That fixed it. I think I had the :db_type argument right back when I had the other problems, but somewhere along the way I dropped the _ without noticing. Sequel is working for me now. I'll still work on getting tinytds working, but I can use an ODBC connection now which is great!
Thank you for the help!

The option name is :db_type, not :dbtype. With :db_type => 'mssql', it should work correctly. Sorry I missed that in the earlier message.
