Note the controller name ("IDE Controller" versus "Ide Controller")!
Kind regards,

OK, thanks very much ... but now ....
with the command :
VBoxManage storageattach sigest --storagectl "IDE Controller" --type
dvddrive --port 1 --device 0 *--medium none* --passthrough on
ERROR: No storage device attached to device slot 0 on port 1 of
controller 'IDE Controller'
Details: code VBOX_E_OBJECT_NOT_FOUND (0x80bb0001), component Machine,
interface IMachine, callee nsISupports
Context: "GetMediumAttachment(Bstr(pszCtl), port, device,
mattach.asOutParam())" at line 614 of file VBoxManageStorageController.cpp
error: Couldn't find the controller attachment for the controller 'IDE
Controller'
--medium none means removing the drive at this slot. So no surprise that
you can't set the passthrough flag for a non-existing drive.
or with the command :
VBoxManage storageattach sigest --storagectl "IDE Controller" --type
dvddrive --port 1 --device 0 --*medium empty *--passthrough on
ERROR: Could not find file for the medium
'/home/pacmo/.VirtualBox/HardDisks/empty' (VERR_FILE_NOT_FOUND)
Details: code VBOX_E_FILE_ERROR (0x80bb0004), component Medium,
interface IMedium, callee nsISupports
Context: "OpenDVDImage(Bstr(pszMedium), emptyUUID,
dvdMedium.asOutParam())" at line 489 of file VBoxManageStorageController.cpp
error: Invalid UUID or filename "empty"
The usage output for "VBoxManage storageattach" says that you need to
specify emptydrive.
One important documentation change was forgotten with 3.1.2. Might be an
idea to look at the documentation of 3.1.4_BETA1, as the incorrect
samples are now fixed.

How can I set : medium port device ??
