There is a kext, EMI.kext or something like that. That's what gets
loaded when you plug in the EMI. Last time I checked this is how it
worked, though they might have changed it recently; I've not been
keeping track that closely.
When it wasn't working, did you look at what Apple System Profiler
reported? It would tell you if it was an unknown USB device (meaning
that the EMI.kext hadn't loaded), or if it was an EMI 2|6 meaning that
it had loaded. At that point the question would have been if the
AppleUSBAudio driver had loaded and Core Audio didn't recognize it, or
if AppleUSBAudio hadn't loaded on it. You could check on that using
IORegistryExplorer and finding its node in the USB family to see if the
AppleUSBAudio driver had loaded or not.
Now that it's working we'll never know, but if it ever happens again
these are some things that you might want to check out some of these
things.

Well, AFAIK, the 'driver' consists of a daemon which listens for USB
insert
notifications and uploads the firmware to the device whenever its
attached
(no kernel extension is used in the process).
Judging by the LED's on the device, the firmware _did_ get uploaded,
its
just that CoreAudio didn't seem to know the device is there: AMS
didn't see
it, for instance.
