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.
