I removed usb_modeswitch and installed it again and I still get the same
result... I enabled logging in usb_modeswitch.conf and I see that the the
device is detected and reported as switched, but its actually not happening.

The configuration file being run actually does switch the device when I
manually run usb_modeswitch -c /var/lib/usb_modeswitch/current_cfg.

What I am looking for is a way to get this device to actually switch
correctly, once the device is plugged in.

Of course, you might discount this possibility, but remember that one in a
million chances happen 99% of the time.
