That's odd:
./Programs/io_misc.c: LogPrint(LOG_WARNING, "input byte missing at offset %d", (int)* offset);
so setting the error level to error should be enough to get it not
printed. Again, posting on brltty@mielke.cc will probably have more
useful answers.

Very probably.

I have no idea, did you check its documentation?

Well, yes and no: the actual bug is that brltty expects more data from
the device. That's where brltty@mielke.cc or Olivier really should get
in the loop to fix that. The fact that rsyslog writes it out is an
independant matter.
