For cases like this, I think quirking is the cleanest solution.
Trying to modify generic behavior to accomodate special cases
sometimes create unexpected subtle issues in other devices and as the
fix itself is buried in the general seemingly unrelated logic, it's
relatively easy to lose the workaround later during an unrelated
update.

Is the device uniquely identifiable?

Thanks.
