"to my knowledge the CL-1 doesn't need to be recognized by any sort of DAW. "
Just a WAAAY out there idea..Freakin WIN 10? Is it possible that an update has caused the PC NOT to recognise a device that is not actually a USB data device and thus not supply it with power?
I do know that USB power IS in the gift of the OS because you can set it to stay on or off when you shut a PC down. Pretty sure all the OP's other tests rule this out but had to say it.

The last Win 10 Creator's update to my system left one of my USB devices in an unrecognized condition. It's USB 2.0 (which had been working perfectly for several years) was reassigned a 3.0 ID and no connection was made. But at least I got a pop-up describing the difficulty. There's the off chance this could be the case.. without the pop-up. Re-installing the device corrected the problem.
