Nut upsuser - May 2009 - Tripplite OMNIVIS1500XL Connection Refused

I'm having problems creating a UPS connection to my Tripp Lite UPS

System:  Ubuntu 8.04.2    Nut 2.4.1  freshly compiled from source.

When I do      upsdrvctl start     everything appears to work and I get
      :Detected a UPS: TRIPP LITE/TRIPP LITE UPS
      Using OMNIVS 2001 protocol (2001)
      Unit ID not retrieved (not available on all models)
      Attached to Tripp Lite UPS

But when I try to start upsd and upsmon I get

May  6 15:34:03 <my host>  upsd[8834]: listening on 127.0.0.1 port 3493
May  6 15:34:03 <my host>  upsd[8834]: Can't connect to UPS [ups]
(tripplite_usb-ups): Connection refused
May  6 15:34:03 <my host>  upsd[8835]: Startup successful
May  6 15:34:03 <my host>  upsmon[8837]: Startup successful
May  6 15:34:03 <my host>  upsd[8835]: User nut at 127.0.0.1 logged into
UPS
[ups]
May  6 15:34:03 <my host>  upsmon[8838]: Poll UPS [ups at localhost]
failed -
Driver not connected
May  6 15:34:03 <my host>  upsmon[8838]: Communications with UPS
ups at localhost lost

The permissions on the usb devices seem OK

/dev/bus/usb/001
crw-rw-r-- 1 root root 189, 0 2009-05-06 14:48 001
crw-rw-r-- 1 root nut  189, 2 2009-05-06 15:33 003

usp.conf is very simple

[ups]
    driver = tripplite_usb
    port = auto
    desc = "Tripplite OMNIVS1500XL"

and upsd.con contains only

LISTEN 127.0.0.1 3493
MAXCONN 128

Suggestions?

Just checking, are the Ubuntu-provided nut .debs all uninstalled?

Is tripplite_usb still running at this point?

I noticed this subject line, and I wanted to confirm what model UPS
you have.  I am not familiar with one called "OMNIVIS1500XL".  Is it
possible you have an OmniSV 1500XL?  If so, perhaps you could help me to
answer a couple of questions I have.  Would you mind posting the results of
your uspc command?  Below are my results.  As you can see, this UPS is
reporting very low voltages, both AC and DC for the UPS, yet I know for a
fact the voltages are good.  Otherwise, everything else seems to be
functioning.
