You are using RXTX, I guess (http://www.rxtx.org/)? It should be
configurable, and you have the source as well. I vaguely recall playing
with the stuff, but can't say for sure that it involved USB serial
devices. In any case, there should be no difference (to the app) which
device node it accesses. As a shorthand, you can try

# ls -l /dev/usb/ttyUSB0 /dev/ttyS0

(unless it breaks something else that you need). Or just remake the
device node with right major/minor numbers. All that is needed only if
the RXTX layer fails to access the right device on its own.
