I have a Delcom USB button assembly that is intended for arcade applications as an HID input device. It is recognized and operates correctly on FreeBSD 14 and CentOS 7, but not on Mint 21. On both CentOS and Mint the device triggers entries in dmesg: CentOS (3.10.0-327.28.3.el7.x86_64):

lsusb on Mint shows it:
Bus 001 Device 010: ID 0fc5:b080 Delcom Engineering USB FS IO
What do I need to tell Mint to get it to recognize this as an input device?
