Public bug reported:

I have USB Digital Oscilloscope which works great on pure Windows
machine but not work on virtualized one. I tried passthru the device
from my Debian Jessie (64bit) host machine to Windows 7 (32bit) guest
machine but unfortunately it does not work very well. It looks that
device is passed thru so Windows machine knows about new device and
loads HID device driver for it but the device driver failed to start the
device and details of an error provided by device manager is "This
device cannot start" Code 10.

Installed Qemu version: 2.1+dfsg-12+deb8u4 0

USB device spec: Dynon Instruments ELAB-080, USB 1.1

On linux host computer
---------------------------
lsusb identify it as:
Bus 003 Device 009: ID 13a3:0001 

lsusb -t identify it as:
/: Bus 03.Port 1: Dev 1, Class=root_hub, Driver=uhci_hcd/2p, 12M
    |__ Port 1: Dev 9, If 0, Class=Human Interface Device, Driver=usbhid, 12M

This is how I started my Windows guest machine
------------------------------------------------------
kvm -cpu host \
    -m 2048MiB \
    -hda test.vdi \
    -ctrl-grab \
    -parallel /dev/parport0 \
    -usbdevice host:13a3:0001

...also instead of last line I tried this one:
    -device usb-host,vendorid=0x13a3,productid=0x0001

none of them help to properly handle my device inside guest machine.

Only one time the Windows guest machine properly start the device so
software for that oscilloscope can identify the Oscilloscope and measure
for a while but unfortunately after I guess 5 seconds of measurement the
device was disconnected from Windows and never start working again even
after couple of restarts of guest machine even after plug and unplug
it's USB cable and power cable.

I searched for a solution or some clues to get it work but none of my
searching over the internet was successful. Because device works on pure
Windows but not work on virtualized one, I think there is a problem with
handling not standard USB devices (like sticks, keyboards, mouses etc.)
