     1This is no bug. You need to be in vboxusers group to access USB devices. Verify with
     2
     3$ id
     4
     5that you are. If not, use
     6
     7$ sudo gpasswd -a your_username vboxusers
     8
     9or
     10
     11sudo usermod -aG vboxusers your_username
     12
     13to add yourself to that group. After the change you need to log out and back in to inherit that change to virtualbox.
