In my case for a chrome web app on ubuntu 13.10/linux 3.11.0-15-generic
 it seems like the suunto module somehow takes over/interferes with the usb 
interface and its impossible to claim the interface via 
chrome.usb.claimInterface API that interfaces with libusb. To disable the 
module I added 'blacklist suunto' to the /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf and 
rebooted.
