I meant to follow up on this sooner but I've had my hands full with some other crises (fun fact: do you now how much a Solaris system can do if SMF pukes itself? Not much... ). So the issue was indeed old firmware. Initially when people responded to check firmware I thought "old firmware? _whatever_ ... of course I have the ea2 firmware! ... in fact let me just hit stop+v here to prove I'm running ea2 before I hit reply ... oh crap!"
I actually had run utfwsync after installation but the sun ray still had older firmware on it so I guess I did something wrong during installation. After I enabled the newer firmware with utfwadm USB redirection started working correctly. So nothing to see here folks, move along, just a guy not paying attention.

If you have utUsbPort showing in device manager, USB redirection has been setup properly. In order for devices to get redirected you need to be running EA2 firmware. -a- > Date: Thu, 1 Oct 2009 12:26:57 -0600 > From: [email protected] > To: [email protected] > Subject: [SunRay-Users] USB redirection on SRS 5 ea2 not working -- what am I doing wrong? > > Hello all, > > I'm trying to get USB redirection going on the ea2 software but it isn't > working for some reason.
