Either compiling and installing OpenNI and Primesense Sensor from source, or installin ros-hydro-openni2-launch via apt-get resolved this problem for me.
The source-solution overrides the system driver for all other packages, so you can run ros-independend pcl_openni-stuff or the openni-apps that are linked against those drivers/libs. With the apt-get solution only openni2_launch works. Other apps, including openni_launch still have this problem as the old driver remains (openni2_launch comes with openni2_camera, which has its own new driver/lib, not overriding the previos one (old: libopenni-sensor-primesense-dev; new: libopenni2-dev)).
Apparently this "new" Asus device does something different then the predecessor, or it's just the new product id that is not listet in the driver... ? We'll never know :)
