IWR1443BOOST: Cannot get data for demo example

I have been trying to get data out from a few IWR1443 units I have been playing within Ubuntu 18.04.
Basically, what I want to do is to get some data from the unit, to validate that it works.


So far I have been unsuccessful and I think I am overlooking something rather simple.
In mmWave Demo Visualizer is get the following error:

I have set up my serial port for the units in the following way to ensure full access:

$ ls -la /dev/ttyACM*
crw-rw-rw- 1 root dialout 166, 0 Apr 23 17:56 /dev/ttyACM0
crw-rw-rw- 1 root dialout 166, 1 Apr 23 17:56 /dev/ttyACM1

My user is also part of dialout, so the should not be any problem:
I can connect to the unit with UniFlash 6 and have tried to load a new version of the 2.1 SDK on to it.
But the result was the same in this case. 

I have also attempted with the ROS node from here:
https://github.com/radar-lab/ti_mmwave_rospkgIn this case I am able to connect to the unit in the second launch consistently, but I still do not receive any data from the unit.
