 I could be mistaken, but I believe you can use the variable
 $check_devices_ignore_paths that's defined in
 /etc/defaults/security.conf (and can be overwritten in
 /etc/security.conf) to specify you want to ignore tty devices.  That
 string gets turned into find(1) "-path" arguments that are then pruned.
 That could be a workaround for you.
