On the client side there is a need for remote-viewer to be configured with USB redir enabled, and having access to the device (via libusb). On a Windows client currently we use WinUSB driver to enable access to the USB device. The driver can be installed using the usbclerk service or manually (e.g. with Zadig). It must be installed for each device to be redirected. On Ovirt, as mentioned, Native Spice USB option has to be enabled. (This would also add the virtual usb devices needed on the qemu-kvm/spice-server side).
