This suggests that the device needs a longer timeout for the INQUIRY command. The default timeout is 5 seconds (the driver adds an extra 0.5 seconds for some reason), but it is a module parameter you can adjust. Try adding
options sd_mod inq_timeout=10
to your /etc/modprobe.conf. This might fix the problem.
Yes! Your suggestion solved my problem, thank you very much.

What we have here is a device which takes a particularly long time to respond to an INQUIRY command (a little over 6 seconds, I think).

Would there be any objections to permanently modifying sd_mod to change the default INQUIRY timeout to 10 seconds (currently 5)?
