  Was a thought. If you have time and inclination here's the QEMU manual
info on USB <https://qemu.weilnetz.de/doc/qemu-doc.html#USB-options>:

2.3.3 USB options

-usb

    Enable the USB driver (if it is not used by default yet).
-usbdevice devname

    Add the USB device devname. Note that this option is deprecated, please
        use -device usb-... instead. See usb_devices.

    mouse

        Virtual Mouse. This will override the PS/2 mouse emulation when
        activated.
    tablet

        Pointer device that uses absolute coordinates (like a touchscreen).
        This means QEMU is able to report the mouse position without having
        to grab the mouse. Also overrides the PS/2 mouse emulation when
        activated.
    braille

        Braille device. This will use BrlAPI to display the braille output
        on a real or fake device.

  Looks like it supports multiple external USB-connected devices. My brief
web search didn't turn up a qemu mail list; linuxquestions.org should have a
forum that would provide insights.

Regards,

Rich
