Hello Hans,
I support the App Sandbox in Developer Technical Support. Unfortunately there are no entitlements that allow sandboxed access to HID APIs at this time.
Please file an enhancement request at <http://developer.apple.com/bugreporter>. It will probably be returned as a duplicate but that helps us gauge how many developers are affected.
I wish I had better news for you.
Best regards,
