Has anyone else found a way to solve this? If not, is it possible to get the unit reflashed locally? I live in a large metro area.

Too bad you didn't read the forum in more detail. You'd have found out that it's not just Sony, but Parallels that has the issue. If the USB is not given the priority it needs, then you can have a problem when the device expects a steady stream.
