Just recently tested smartctl (a few days ago) r324135 and I
found that the auto detection seems to be broken but manually
selecting the device type works. Are you positive you tested
every device type?

I was a bit surprised to find that atacam works for my onboard
controller and the HBA only works with sat,auto and scsi
