Thank you for your response. I see your point, but it's a bit more complicated than that.

I had the Kobo Clara HD first and there were issues with updating the library properly, so I disabled the Kobo Touch plugin and set it up with the user-defined USB driver, per David's suggestion above. After disabling the Kobo Touch plugin, a device called "Kobo eReader" appeared a disabled device under "Preferences: Ignored devices". The Kobo Clara HD synched fine now.

When I plug in the Kobo Aura ONE, Calibre ignores it until I enable that formerly disabled device "Kobo eReader" again, which will activate the Kobo Touch plugin. Then, the Aura shows up in Calibre but has issues synching the library properly, just as the Clara had before with the Touch driver. And the Clara HD has the same issues again that I managed to avoid by setting up the user-defined USB driver.

What I would like to do is to set up both devices with the user-defined USB driver. Hope somebody has some insight in how to do this.
