Mac OS X: USB Device only partially registered

[floriandotpy]

I have installed the freenect drivers using homebrew and have had success with this before. However, when I now connect my device, it isn't recognized by any of the demo commands (i.e. freenect-regview).

I use ioreg -p IOUSB to list any USB devices on my system.

The following shows up when the Kinect is connected to USB:

  | |   +-o Xbox NUI Motor@fa132000  <class IOUSBDevice, id 0x10000055a, registered, matched, active, busy 0 (147 ms), retain 9>

However, what doesn't show up (but what I am expecting from previous successful tries) would be the following:

  | | +-o HubDevice@fa130000  <class IOUSBHubDevice, id 0x100003cd2, registered, matched, active, busy 0 (9 ms), retain 15>
  | |   +-o Xbox NUI Motor@fa132000  <class IOUSBDevice, id 0x100003cdc, registered, matched, active, busy 0 (221 ms), retain 9>
  | |   +-o Xbox Kinect Audio, © 2011 Microsoft Corporation. All rights reserved.@fa131000  <class IOUSBDevice, id 0x100003ce9, registered, matched, active, busy 0 (7 ms), retain $
  | |   +-o Xbox NUI Camera@fa133000  <class IOUSBDevice, id 0x100003cf1, registered, matched, active, busy 0 (31 ms), retain 9>

It seems like only part of the Kinect is successfully registered as a USB device. How can this be? Any ideas how I can troubleshoot this?

I have the same problem on Arch Linux on the latest version of libfreenect.
