The question mark after the chip id is a bad sign. It means, that
sane-find-scanner was unable to actuall talk to the scanner. It could
get its didentification but sending commands failed (usually because
the interface couldn't be claimed).

Try enabling debug message. E.g.
export SANE_DEBUG_PLUSTEK=255
export SANE_DEBUG_SANEI_USB=255
To reduce the number of USB messages, diable everything but plustek in
dll.conf.
There have been some reports that enabling debugging "fixes" libusb
problems on MacOS X in some cases. Even if it doesn't, you should get
a debug log that shows the exact error message.
Also have a look at the archive of the last few weeks of sane-devel.
There have been some similar reports.
Bye,
Henning
