The beginning difficulty is set to 1k. So a few 1k+ shares will need to submitted before the difficulty from the pool adjusts to a lower number. It could take a while on a lower end miner.
Starting diff is 1k you will get shares only very infrequently to start with at that low a hashrate. Eventually the pool will set you to a lower diff or if you were running cgminer instead of the hostile fork based off it you could also use the --suggest-diff command. It doesn't matter since shares have no intrinsic value with solo mining anyway. They're just mining feedback here.
I went away to lunch and left the stick mining and came back to an adjusted difficulty and shares being accepted successfully.
I understand they have no intrinsic value here, I just wanted to be sure I was setting things up correctly and since I was not getting the same feedback I got with the U3 I figured something was amiss. I am using cgminer at home and will use it for this stick as well when I get back.
Thank you both for your assistance, I really appreciate it.
