Since you are connecting the URI to the controller there is no need to 
use the ctcss input to the URI. I'm assuming the 7330 is validating the 
pl on the repeater port.
You only need to make the following connections:

cont PTT - URI COR
cont COR - URI PTT
cont TXA - URI RXA
cont RXA - URI TXA

You may need a pullup resistor on the controller cor input though.

The URI does not require pullup resistors (they are internally built in) 
on the cor and ctcss inputs. What they require is a transition to ground 
in either active hi or active low.  So they can be connected to open 
collector outputs. No voltage needs to be sourced to the URI. The inputs 
are diode isolated to block the volatage anyway.

Since the PTT from the controller is act lo, then the "corfrom" needs to 
be set to usbinvert for active low.
and the ctcss input on the URI can be ignored.

Set carrierfrom to usbinvert and ctcssfrom=no and comment out the pl 
frequencies in the default tone, RX tone and TX tone lines.

Restart Asterisk then you should get audio to the node from the controller.

Hope this helps.
