Description
Tried to get my Ralink Wireless-Card in VBox 4.1.0. Therefore I created before the start of the VM a filter for that device. Then I try to get it into the VM. VBox always says device is busy and even shows that device when it is unpluged. Pluggin and unpluggin the device while the VM is running has no effect. If I create an empty filter and then plug the device while the VM is running whole USB of the Host is broken. I can't use my mouse anymore. I connected via RDP to the HOST and shutdown all VirtualBox processes. Then I pluged and unplugged my mouse --> no success. I had to reboot the whole VM. I now reverted to VBox 4.0.8 and everything works fine regarding USB. (Forgot to mention that I always installed the proper extension Pack for USB support).
I see this as a critical bug because Host has to be rebooted after occurence.
Technical Data: Host Win 7 64 Bit 8 GB RAM Core i5 2500K, HardwareVirtualization support enabled
