It's always actually been the first USB tty that is required; otherwise
you'll never get a connection response.  It could be that HAL's
properties changed somewhat, and depending on what key was used in
10-modem.fdi to pick the right port (serial.port or usb.interface) you
may have ended up with the right one selected by chance.  That's the
problem with 10-modem.fdi; the ports are not guaranteed to be the same
all the time.  Thus probing the ports explicitly in combination with
driver hints for the "control" port (or whatever port does emit
unsolicited replies which is what we require) do the trick.
