After some more tinkering I have resolved the issue. It turns out that my bank-id physical authentication device was somehow interfering with the detection of the adapter. I have verified this by re-plugging the authentication device again and the adapter is then again no longer detected.
I have no idea why it works like this, but that's how it is.
If you happen upon this answer for a similar problem. Try using the adapter with a minimal amount of other USB peripherals to see if something is interfering somehow.
