I did a similar thing with my sound card that requires proprietary Windows only drivers to operate. First, check whether VT-d is available and enabled on your laptop with xl dmesg|grep VT-d Second, identify the number of available USB controllers with sudo lspci|grep USB. If you have more than one controller, assign it to Windows HVM. Within Windows HVM install USB controller driver (if it's a USB 3.0 or later) and then install drivers for the headset (if required). I am able to use the soundcard in the Windows HVM with no problems so you should too. Remember to enable VT-d in BIOS/UEFI first. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-users" group.
