Switched to a 2-port ASMedia controller and I was able to attach a hub out of

Hi Brett,

Is there any possibilities that your specific card is broken? I’ve googled 
around before buying the card, and it seems that Renesas uPD720201 cards are 
better performant than ASMedia ones.

Hmm, let me offer another data point; if I assign the onboard ASMedia USB3 
controller to my VM, I often get hangs when OVMF enumerates attached devices 
and it's a crap shoot whether devices will work after a VM reboot.  On the 
other hand, my Renesas card works much more reliably.  However, I've also found 
that TI based USB3 chips work far more reliably than either of those for 
non-VM, bare metal use (no VM experience on those).  The early versions of the 
Renesas chips are pretty crappy, but I infer that newer ones are more well 
behaved.  Personally I'm not a fan of any ASMedia components and avoid them in 
my purchasing decisions.  Thanks,

Hi Alex,

I just noticed that Texas Instruments also makes USB 3.0 chipset. Are you 
referring to TUSB7340 like this [1]. The new item price listed almost as twice 
as Renesas’ :D
