Description

Raising here to capture the issue:

Currently the usn from a ssdp discovery is used to identify a device. This causes problems where the device description contains embedded devices, not just a root device, e.g. Sonos. [Attached is the disocovery log for Sonos and full device and service description set.]

I think it better to use the udn that comes from the device description as the device identifier. These are guaranteed unique, if the maufacturer gets it right.
