Public bug reported: I am using Ubutu saucy X64 server with libvirtd 1.1.1
Once a USB has been properly attached to a virtual machine on reconnecting the device libvirt does not automatically reattach the device to the guest machine. See also here: This could be a related bug. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1016511 Thanks in advance for your help!
