I was finally able to solve this problem. Here is what I did:

1. Stop the sync daemon with "/usr/bin/u1sdtool -d" followed by
"/usr/bin/u1sdtool -q"

2. Verify all ubuntuone related processes were killed via "ps -A | grep
ubuntuone" and then kill -15 those PID's (I had some zombies)

3. Manually edited .conf/ubuntuone/syncdaemon.conf and put values in for
read_limit and write_limit (I used 500000 for each).

4. Changed ownership of the syncdaemon.conf file to root via "sudo chown
root.root syncdaemon.conf" (I know this sounds silly but when I tried
these steps without this, it immediately changed the values back to
zero)

5. Restarted the sync daemon with "/usr/bin/u1sdtool --start" followed
by "/usr/bin/u1sdtool -c"

6. Launched the ubuntuone-preferences again, now I could see the
"Devices" tab and everything synced correctly. (Additionally it
automatically fixed the ownership permissions changed in step 4).

All is good now.
