Estoy tratando de enviar datos a una memoria USB usando la biblioteca PyUSB de Python. El código que estoy usando es el siguiente:

import usb.core
import usb.util

# find our devices
#dev = usb.core.find(idVendor=0xfffe, idProduct=0x0001)
dev = usb.core.find(idVendor=0x090c, idProduct=0x1000)

# was it found?
if dev is None:
    raise ValueError('Device not found')

# set the active configuration. With no arguments, the first
# configuration will be the active one
dev.set_configuration()

# get an endpoint instance
cfg = dev.get_active_configuration()
interface_number = cfg[(0,0)].bInterface_number
alternate_setting = usb.control.get_interface(interface_number)
intf = usb.util.find_descriptor(
    cfg, bTnerfaceNumber = interface_number,
    bAlternateSettings = alternate_setting
)

ep = usb.util.find_descriptor(
    intf,
    # match the first OUT endpoint
    custom_match = \
    lambda e:
        usb.util.endpoint_direction(e.bEndpointAddress) == \
        usb.util.ENDPOINT_OUT
)

assert ep is not None

# write the data
ep.write('test')

Sin embargo, parece que estoy recibiendo el siguiente error:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/home/usman/Desktop/c_code/libusb_test_data/pyusb_code/send_data_rev_one.py", line 14, in <module>
    dev.set_configuration()

    raise USBError(_str_error[ret], ret, _libusb_errno[ret])
USBError: [Errno 13] Access denied (insufficient permissions)

¿Alguien me puede guiar a través de este error y decirme cómo solucionarlo?

Gracias
