Never mind, @Alexander. I managed to find out myself. As it may be
useful to others, I will explain how it's done. I created a small bash
script, e.g. cougar_keyboard.sh, with the following contents:

#!/bin/bash
sudo su -c 'echo -n "1-13:1.2" > /sys/bus/usb/drivers/usbhid/unbind'
sudo su -c 'echo -n "1-13:1.2" > /sys/bus/usb/drivers/aziokbd/bind'


Here, 1-13:1 is the USB address of my keyboard, it will vary on other computers.
The first command unbinds the third (thus xxx.2 in the address, as it starts 
from 0) interface of the USB device from the regular usbhid driver. Second 
command binds it to the aziokbd driver.

Cheers.
