USB device not showing up in windows VM

Featured Replies

C0o0o0o0o0L...

 

So this device (a USB condencer mic) was working fine up until today. Nothing has changed that I am aware of but currently windows won't recognise it. Nothing in audio devices, nothing in device manager.

 

Unraid is see it fine.

 

Bus 001 Device 024: ID 17a0:0303 Samson Technologies Corp. C01U Pro condenser microphone

 

And I have passed it through.

      </source>
      <alias name='hostdev0'/>
</hostdev>

 

I've tried it in another PC and it shows up and functions as normal.

 

I've tried moving it around to other USB ports that I know are working with other devices

 

I've tried with the VMs USB controller in nec-xhci mode and in the default mode.

 

I'm really at a loss for what to do, this device has had some trouble showing up in this VM in the past but a reboot of the VM has always gotten it back

ok so I bumped the powerswitch while I was trying an internal USB port and shutdown my server. When it came back up it's working again?

It's because in the lsusb output you posted it's device 24 and in your pass through tag it's device 23  ;)

Rebooting probably made it device 23 again.

huh so it was. Before booting the VM though the XML is just vedor and product ids so it was picking the wrong device number somehow?

I thought you had put in the device id, but I guess you copied the tag while the VM was running?

Somehow your usb device got disconnected and connected again, giving it a new device id.

Yea copied while it was running. Must have, it seems to do that oftenish. I do experience the lights on some devices flicer during the VMs boot. maybe they all get dissconnected and reconnected then and just that device is lucky enough to get a new number
