USB keyboard/mouse not usuable by unraid outside of active VM

Featured Replies

Currently I have my 6.9.2 server set up with a W10 VM that I use for gaming/daily driving, the VM is set to not auto start. Previously I was able to use the keyboard in the terminal should I wish/need to, before starting the VM up.

 

Last night at some point my server randomly crashed, couldn't access GUI or plex etc. which in itself isn't an issue, just rebooted this morning and checked it on the way to work via my phone to see if there were any drive issues etc. All drives seemed okay and the system was doing a parity check as expected.

 

I tried to log into the GUI on my phone this evening to see how the parity check went but it extremely slow/unresponsive. I was then able to access the log in page to my server on my laptop, but when I logged in it became slow/unresponsive again. I then tried to SSH into the server and use powerdown -r to reboot but after 10-15 mins, server was still up and the terminal window hadn't updated.

 

So I hard reset (not what I wanted to do but at this point I didn't have any choice), and its booted up okay, parity check has started again and can access the GUI via my phone & laptop just fine. The issue that I've found however, when my monitor shows the terminal screen after it's finished booting, my USB mouse & keyboard aren't detected/recognized (I can tell due to no RGB cycling).

 

This is a new issue as previously they were usable until the VM took over the USB controller that's passed through. Is there any reason why this would not be the case now ?

 

Apologies for the long winded back story, but just wanted to give some background as to how I got to this point. I've also attached diagnostics that I've just taken. I have set up the logs to be written to flash on shutdown etc so hopefully there's something in there that'll help.
