How long did you wait?  It can take a long time.  

Also, at 115,200, the drag of all that debug output will likely cause
lock fail.  You can not debug at high speed with a lot of debug on.

How does it work with no debug?  Especially after waiting a minute or two?

I'm guessing that gpsd is sending something that your GPS does not like.

You could try building a gpsd with just the ublox driver in it.
