Description
I've been unable to get USB 3.0 or 2.0 devices to attach to VMs on a machine I've added a VLI-based PCIe USB 3.0 card to. It shows up as "captured" in the devices menu, but never appears in the VM. The device is also not replaced with the passthrough driver on the host. I've reason to believe this is related to the VLI chipset the card uses as USB 2.0 devices attached to the Intel chipset's USB 2.0 controller work just fine. The same VMs are able to have devices passed through to them properly on a machine that uses Intel's USB 3.0 controller. I've tested this with an external USB 3.0 hard drive (ASMedia controller) and two flash drives. (Sandisk Ultra and a Silicon Power.)
