I do not know anything about Arch Linux. But, I have had the same
problem with FreeBSD. With the older SHR version (around 2010) the
interface was created fine, while with the recent (stage 046, or even
before) it was not created. The problem was that the USB vendor and
product ID is now presented by the SHR Linux kernel as 0x0525:0xa4a2
(and as well the IP addr pair changed, btw.). In FreeBSD I have had to
adjust my device daemon hook scripts to that. Maybe Arch Linux uses a
similar procedure to detect the USB device as a network device ...

HIH, espero que te ayude
