USB access conflicts with (Brave) browser

Post by tomtom8003 »

Code: Select all

VBoxManage list usbhost
gives me a list of USB only when the Brave browser is not started.
Steps to reproduce:
-

Code: Select all

:~$ VBoxManage list usbhost
Host USB Devices:

UUID:               261eee21-dd33-452b-a124-9227b5715c17
VendorId:           0x8087 (8087)
ProductId:          0x0032 (0032)
Revision:           0.0 (0000)
....
- Start Brave Browser
-

Code: Select all

:~$ VBoxManage list usbhost
Host USB Devices:

<none>
- Stop Brave browser
-

Code: Select all

:~$ VBoxManage list usbhost
Host USB Devices:

UUID:               261eee21-dd33-452b-a124-9227b5715c17
VendorId:           0x8087 (8087)
ProductId:          0x0032 (0032)
Revision:           0.0 (0000)
....
Could somebody give me a hint where to look?

And to all who are desperate that they have no access to USB despite all rights and groups set, perhaps try to kill (<CTRL>+<ESC>) your browser.
