I have configured an USB (2.0) device to be connected to the machine (on startup). When using VBoxVmService the device is not connected.

It would be great if I can specify an USB uuid in the config.

The USB device can then be connected using the IConsole interface: https://www.virtualbox.org/sdkref/interface_i_console.html#a684934d114d359e33a4a2106495444e3

I struggled with this the use of "saved states".

I think I had to save the state with usb attached in the regular way.....vboxvm picks it up later.

A better way of doing this would be very helpful

Do you mean it is already possible to attach an USB device using VBoxVmService? How can I do that?

I have not found any solution to make it work... onyl removing the VM from the INI + reconnecting the USB device every time is working. And even reconnect it is only working once. Next time I have to reboot again.. using: RF-USB-Stick.
VirtualBox has a bug in combination with Win10 + USB/2.0/3.0 as well ...
