That I'm not sure about.  I'll have to try to reproduce that with the
FTDI based usb to serial breakout boards I have on hand.

As for the permissions... look at configuration PolicyKit to change
the authorizations for serial modems

GUI in Gnome is in the menu: System->Preferences->System->Authorizations

look for the hal device access for serial devices. Change the
authorization as needed by either opening up or granting access to
particular users

Or you can use the polkit-action  and polkit-auth  commandline tools
if you dont want to use the gui.
