when it fails for me usually because X didn't restart.
first be sure the driver is installed
[vince@desk2 ~]$ modinfo hid-huion
filename: /lib/modules/3.18.6-200.fc21.i686+PAE/extra/hid-huion.ko
version: 5
license: GPL

depends:

[vince@desk2 ~]$
Then check
/var/log/Xorg.0.log
assuming X was restarted you should find something like:

[vince@desk2 ~]$ xsetwacom --list
HUION PenTablet stylus id: 8 type: STYLUS
HUION PenTablet pad id: 9 type: PAD
[vince@desk2 ~]$
Your list makes me think the driver is not installed. a recent change
from Nick consolidated the devices
and
[vince@desk2 ~]$ xsetwacom -V
0.28.0
[vince@desk2 ~]$
I don't think the problem is with your version of xsetwacom. But that
is a guess on my part.
Gimp gave me lots of issues. Some times I would
$ rm .gimp-2.8/devicerc
I noticed that some times the stylus would move the mouse pointer but
that it could only select some things and not others.
Say file but not the pencil icon in gimp.
Then noticed that it had same issues outside of gimp. I got no idea
what was going on.
btw I have to re-execute the huion.sh script every time the tablet
gets plugged in.
Which is why I tried to get it to run of the udev script.
The udev trigger works but to set the xsetwacom it has to have a X11 DISPLAY.
The I tried various delays in the udev trigger to wait till X was up.
Also put in the log statements to help me determine what it was runing
vs when X started.
The udev is
# to restart udev after changes issue
#
# udevadm control --reload
#
SUBSYSTEM=="usb", ATTRS{idVendor}=="256c", SYMLINK+="input/H610N",
RUN+="/home/vince/bin/udevHuion"
and
[vince@desk2 ~]$ cat bin/udevHuion
#!/bin/bash
#Mon Jan 19 16:49:06 EST 2015
# called by udev rule
#set -x
WHO=vince
WHAT="/home/vince/bin/huion.sh"
Display=`who | grep -m1 ^$WHO.*\( | awk '{print $5}' | sed 's/[(|)]//g'`
export DISPLAY="$Display"
su vince -c "DISPLAY=$Display $WHAT udev"&
[vince@desk2 ~]$
fails every time.

good luck
