Calibre 5.1.0. Error communicating with device
Oct 8 update: Problem is resolved.

I was able to add books to my Kobo Forma just yesterday. But today, when I connect my Kobo Forma, Calibre successfully syncs page locations for the books but then abruptly disconnects the device. This means I can't add books to the device.

Here's the error message:
