Unable to pass USB device to VM

Hi all,

 

I have searched for a while but can't seem to find the answer to my problem.

 

I have a DVD-Writer connected to me server via USB. I am able to see the device when I go into my VM settings, and am able to select it. However, when I start the VM, the USB device is not visible inside the VM. Here are the specs:

 

USB Devices:

Bus 003 Device 004:ID 04b4:6830 Cypress Semiconductor Corp. CY7C68300A EZ-USB AT2 USB 2.0 to ATA/ATAPI

 

XML for VM:

<hostdev mode='subsystem' type='usb' managed='no'>
      <source>
        <vendor id='0x04b4'/>
        <product id='0x6830'/>
      </source>
      <address type='usb' bus='0' port='1'/>
    </hostdev>

 

I see that the Bus and Device don't match up in the VM's XML, but I am unable to change the XML without getting an error message. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

 

Thanks!
