After a discussion in the forums, the ticket can be Closed as "WorksForMe" (or maybe "Invalid"?).
The underlying reason was that Windows services was grabbing the (USB to) Bluetooth adapter. Stopping these services made the adapter available, and allowed it to be grabbed as a normal USB device.
Note:
See TracTickets
for help on using tickets.
The bugtracker is NOT the right place for advice or questions.
It's usually better and faster, if problems like this one (configuration, question) get first addressed in the VirtualBox forums. More than 95% of the issues are resolved over there, which keeps the developers focusing on the bug fixes and enhancements, and there is no need for another ticket to keep track of. For example, yours is not a bug and someone from the developers has to deal with it and close it as "Invalid".
You didn't mention your host (you left it as "other"), so, please open a new thread in the Using VirtualBox section of the forums.
Be sure to say that you came from the bugtracker and include the ticket #.
