Description
Environment: VirtualBox on Windows 7 x64 (The Windows Host is actually a Guest on a Hyper-V, Server 2012 R2)
The Windows 7 is connected via Remote Desktop while being attached with some USB devices via RemoteFx USB redirection. VirtualBox is unable to detect these USBs, thus the Nested guests are not able to use USB attached to their Host. It is possible that VirtualBox could support such "uncommon" configuration?
Blow shows a snapshot (devicemanager.jpg) from the "Device Manager" to illustrate the hardware topology while RemoteFx USB redirection is in effect.
