Thanks for the link.

I had read that thread, but it was not clear if it was mako/Nexus 4 
specific or Ubuntu Touch in general.

I've searched around, found this 
http://askubuntu.com/questions/616245/tether-ubuntu-bq-phone

It suggested adding the ID for the Pro 5 (2a45) to 
~/.android/adb_usb.ini, but on my 16.04 system there is no ini file, so 
I created one, and added 0x2a45, stopped and restarted adb, but to no 
avail (not sure why I would need the adb server, in this case anyway).

This appears more on relevant -

I would think editing the "/etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules" 
might produce results. This is, as I recall, the sort of editing needed 
in Ubuntu of old (10.04 era, thereabouts)
