    Hi All,

    Fedora 31
    qemu-kvm-4.1.0-5.fc31.x86_64

    If I have a virtual machine running and I insert a
    flash drive into a USB socket, the virtual machine
    steels the flash drive from the host, not that it
    will actually work in the VM, which they don't.
    To get them to work in my VM's I have to add them
    as a piece of hardware to my configuration, then
    they work.

    I have to exit all my VM's to be able to see my flash
    drives again from the hosts system (FC31).  This is
    a pain in the neck.

    Any way around this?


Has the USB controller been assigned as a PCI device to the VM?   If so it would be detached from the host machine.

It just says USB Controller.  I will look more closely
tomorrow to see if there is anything like that.
