This seems to be a recent regression. What kernel version are you using?

Can you also post the output from 'lsusb -vvv -d0764:', preferably run as root?

The vendor name from lsusb (without -v) is usually a good guess, but
often it is the name of the OEM (lsusb looks that up in a static
number-to-name mapping file). The product and vendor strings returned
by 'lsusb' with one or more '-v' flags are usually customized to match
the name printed on the unit.
