Bluetooth USB disconnects - OSX VM

 Hi

the Bluetooth USB device disconnects sometimes. especially after VM reboot.

 

setup:

UNRAID <- OSX VM <- PCI USB ext <-BT usb

 

Have a PCI USB board INATECK with Fresco Logic FL1100 USB3 (passthrough dedicated to the OSX VM)

have IOGEAR Bluetooth 4.0 USB Micro adapter connected to it (detected by OSX)

 

 When I power on the server and then start the HighSierra  VM  the keyboard and the pad are connected perfectly well.

But after soft reset/restart of the VM  SOMETIMES I see the bluetooth active in the OSX and I can even see the keyboard/pad connected but there is no activity. nothing is moving and working.

 VNC to the VM and  reset the BT doesnt help

 attach/detach via the wonderful plugin "Libvirt hotplug USB" doesnt help

the only two options are :  restart the server which helps 100%.  or do several soft restarts of the VM coupled with physically taking the IOGEAR out/in. sometimes 2-3 until it starts working.

 

any suggestions ?

any command to send a reset to the board maybe? some cronjob to do that periodically maybe ?
