Sorry, I missed that it was a USB based USRP. Even though its USB, the
discovery logic still tries to send out broadcast packets to your
network interfaces. (I am assuming that this error is a network issue.)

I think if you add these arguments, the discovery logic wont attempt to
search the network.

uhd_find_devices --args="type=usrp1"
uhd_usrp_probe --args="type=usrp1"

It still might be worth it to fix the issue. Maybe disable a few extra
network interfaces (or virtual ones like VPN). I have no idea, so I am
curious as to what might cause this.

I assume you did do this:
