Recently I tried the same with a Win7 guest on Fedora 15 and it did not
work either. Then I tried VirtualBox with the proprietary parts added
and that worked fine. Have not looked into why it does not work with
KVM. Will revisit that when I have more time.
You need to make sure that your USB stick is not grabbed by the host
system. Iirc there is more information in the Virtualization Guide:
