Then another couple of things you could try:
$ ls -ld /dev/vboxusb
$ ls -l /sys/bus/usb/devices
Or if you want to go for the big machinery the following should give a more detailed look into what is happening: terminate all running VirtualBox processes (VirtualBox, VBoxSVC) and do
$ strace -f -o VBoxSVC.strace VBoxSVC
and run the VBoxManage command again. Attach the file VBoxSVC.strace which is produced.
What does
say? If it doesn't work as user then as root.
