FreeBSD's USB support has always been somewhat deficient. For example,

This is false for at least the APC SmartUPS the machine I'm sending this
from is connected to. I wouldn't be suprised if it was true once, but
it isn't today.

The uhid driver used to grab the APC USB device, but I think someone
added a quirk in 6.1 to stop it so the ugen driver would get it instead.
