It is partially true since does not work for all distros, even belonging to vboxusers group my Slackware host does not allow the use of USB from VirtualBox and it shows the devices but unavailable in gray.
The only solution that worked was editing the 'usbfs' entry in my /etc/fstab and configure it with these options devuid=0XXX,devgid=0YYY,devmode=0777 where 0XXX is my user UID and 0YYY my user GID... check 'man mount' at 'usbfs' for details.
