This bug was fixed in the package brltty - 5.3.1-2ubuntu4
---------------
brltty (5.3.1-2ubuntu4) yakkety; urgency=medium
* debian/brltty.default: Remove RUN_BRLTTY variable.
* Revert to using Debian's version of the BrlTTy service file
* Revert init script to Debian's version, and don't install it, Ubuntu
uses systemd exclusively now.
* Remove references to RUN_BRLTTY, and enable the systemd service instead.
* Add new service file for use with the udev rules. (LP: #1574538)
* Tweak gbp.conf to comply with gbp convensions.
* Disable the main brltty service by default

Title:
BrlTTY not functioning correctly.
Status in brltty package in Ubuntu:
Fix Released
Status in brltty source package in Xenial:
In Progress
Bug description:
affects ubuntu/brltty
subscribe ubuntu-sru
assignee themuso
BrlTTy in Ubuntu 16.04 is not currently functional due to some changes
that were incorrectly introduced during development. The ystemD unit
to start or stop BrlTTy currently does not function, and Udev does not
currently start BrlTTY when a USB Braille display is connected.
Impact:
These changes only impact the BrlTTy package, and the regression potential is low, because if the systemd unit is incorrect, BrlTTy should not start at all, and by default that is what we want anyway.
Test case:
The first part of this test case can be tested by anyone, the second part can only really be verified by someone with a USB Braille display.
1. Try starting the BrlTTy service using "sudo systemctl start brltty" with BrlTTY 5.3.1-2ubuntu2 installed. BrlTTy should not start, and "systemctl status brltty" should show an error in the log.
2. Update to BrlTTY 5.3.1-2ubuntu2.1 from xenial-proposed, and try step 1 again. BrlTTy won't start, unless you change RUN_BRLTTY to yes in /etc/default/brltty, but systemctl status brltty should not show any errors.
Hardware specific test case for USB Braille displays.
1. Connect a USB Braille display to your computer. Nothing should happen. Disconnect your display again.
2. Update to BrlTTY 5.3.1-2ubuntu2.1 from xenial-proposed, and re-connect your USB Braille display. BrlTTy should load, and you should see activity on your display.
