With Qubes release 3.x, having USB controller(s) default assigned to sys-usb and Xen meddling checking shared resources between different USB controllers, it is even more difficult than R2 to use external USB music hardware, either for output or input.
So I wonder: why not using sys-usb as a music hub? Everything is already assigned and all you have to do is plug in external USB devices. Well, now all music I'm playing on other hardware are mp3 downloaded from internet, which means sources that I cannot control and eventually compromised. So this may result in compromising sys-usb. Consequences? I do not know, but I do know that the color of sys-usb is default red, so this may not be a mayor problem. What do you think? I have seen that default sys-usb does not has a sys-net VM. It may be possible to leave it as it is, playing music saved on a USB medium, or it may be even more convenient to connect sys-usb to a sys-net VM to directly play music from youtube, internet radios, etc. Would you do that?
