The issue is, you need to get libvirt name of the device and run the nodedev-detach
- have you done that with no success?
If not, use some simple script such as (python)
import libvirt
conn = libvirt.openReadOnly()
devices = conn.listAllDevices()
for dev in devices:
print dev.XMLDesc()
to easily find the device and use the <name> element for nodedev-detach call. That should
handle unbinding it from the driver and possibly binding it to some usb stub if that exists.
If that doesn't fix it, I admit that I'm not sure what could be the cause apart from OS/hw.
