Unless it is not in group dialout, it
should work. Only other thing I can think is check dialout in
with both "sudo vigr" and "sudo vigr -s" and make sure both
dialout listings show your username. "vigr" stands for "vi" and
"group", "vi" the editor
You could create a udev rule that will set the permissions and/or group
each time the device is plugged in.

You are right that the device recreates itself every time it is plugged in

While this will work, it is not really the right way to do it. It is
also temporary. These devices recreate themselves every boot, or every

The right way is "sudo adduser user dialout" Substitue your user name
for "user." On some systems the group may be different.
