Logitech Brio - works elsewhere, not inside VM


Recommended Posts

So I've tested this webcam on my gaming PC and it works correctly - picture, sound, everything. While I can assign it to the Windows 10 VM, nothing else happens. The activity light comes on, but no video or audio. 

I've tried routing it through a USB hub, direct connection to several ports - but no luck. I'm out of ideas - everything else in the VM works correctly. I've tried using a Logitech C922 and it works 100% without issue without any setup or tinkering. But this just won't show video. The VM won't launch if the USB controller is set to USB 2.0 - it requires USB 3.0. I've tried both versions.

Current hardware - 1920x w/ an ASUS x399 Prima A-II motherboard, 32GB of total system RAM.

XML for the VM is below.

I have the same issue. Brio not running (ligh on no picture/video) when passed through via libvirt or from start. My hope was on a dedicated USB slot whose controller is passed through. Sounds not good folks. I have read a bit about the webcam issues in vms, but was under the impression that a passed through USB controller port should work. bummer :(
