This is odd. I use a Brailliant 40 here with no problems. I actually don't use it with libusb-win32, but rather, I have it set to use the serial port that the Brailliant drivers emulate due to a few problems I was having with libusb-win32. It does work with libusb-win32 for me, but there are some problems when I disconnect my display.
You can get more information from brltty by stopping the brltty service and then running brltty directly like this: 
brltty -l debug -n -e
(brltty.exe is in the bin subdir of the BRLTTY installation dir.)
If you wanted to try using the emulated serial port instead of libusb-win32, modify etc\brltty.conf in your BRLTTY installation directory and add these two lines to the top: 
braille-driver bm
braille-device serial:com4
where com4 is the emulated port for your Brailliant, which you can find under Ports (com and lpt) in Device Manager.
