Anyone able to connect Ekos/Kstars with Skywatcher CQ 350 mount?

I have my old set up working with EQ6-R Pro connecting my Ubuntu Linux pc/USB port directly connected to the mount and using EQMOUNT indi driver.

When I try a similar setup with the CQ350 Pro mount, it doesn't work. I keep getting this error. There is no other serial device connected.

/dev/serial/by-id/usb-Prolific_Technology_Inc._USB-Serial_Controller_D-if00-port0 is already used by another driver or process.

Tried changing USB port to/dev/ttyUSB0, still the same error. (Baud rate is set to 115,200)

Tried connected to the serial port directly,
sudo screen /dev/ttyUSB0 115200
type :e1 gave me the output (=030925), so serial port seems to be responding.
