Are you sure this device doesn't need a "magic" command sent to it in
order for it to show up as a USB device on the bus? That sometimes
happens :(

I am having the person with the problem try an openSUSE Tumbleweed rescue system to see if a 5.12 kernel can see the device.

None of the other Realtek devices have hidden their USB ID behind some magic command.
