That last line for ID 0b39:0421 is the device id for
the usb to serial adapter produced by
Omnidirectional Control Technology Inc.
http://www.octinc.com.tw/products/usb_to_serial.html
looking through the kernel, this device is supported
by the ftdi_sio driver http://ftdi-usb-sio.sourceforge.net/
I don't know if you have to explicity load this module
or if usbserial loads it for you, but you might try
modprobe ftdi_sio
