Hey,
I have a similar issue with the QHY5III 462 color cam. I can't connect it in kstars.
When using "lsusb" I get the following output:
Bus 005 Device 006: ID 1618:0462 Cypress WestBridge
So the camera is visible. However running the test "/usr/bin/qhy_ccd_test" gives:

No QHYCCD camera found, please check USB or power.

The SDK is ("sudo ldd /usr/bin/indi_qhy_ccd |grep libqhy*"):
libqhyccd.so.22 => /lib/aarch64-linux-gnu/libqhyccd.so.22 (0x0000ffff94e18000)

I built kstars and indi including indi 3rdparty drivers from source just 2 days ago.
I tried running "sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get -y dist-upgrade" but I still got the same error when running "/usr/bin/qhy_ccd_test". Trying different USB cables and both USB3.0 and USB2.0 also didn't work, so they don't seem to be the source of the issue. At this point I don't know how to find/solve the issue..
My ToupCam IMX571 color CCD and EQMod mount run perfectly in kstars.
