Default Kindle USB "device probem"

I posted about mounting a kindle last year but I'm starting a new thread because this is a different problem on a different desktop (Dell Optiplex 3020).

When I plug in the kindle,it seems to be recognized at first and it does charge. But I can't mount the device and there is a dmesg entry (repeated multiple times) saying there is a device problem.

Here is the relevant part of dmesg and also the output of disklabel.

dmesg:
uhidev3 at uhub0 port 5 configuration 1 interface 0 "vendor 0x1949 USB Charger" rev 2.00/2.00 addr 5
uhidev3: iclass 3/0
uhid2 at uhidev3: input=1, output=0, feature=0
