I’ve tried two different platforms, and the integrated USB controllers worked even after multiple reattachments. But you’re right, you lose the ability to shut down the host, unless you unplug the keyboard and plug it into a USB port that hasn’t been passed to the VM. Still, this wasn’t a problem for me since I wrote a script that would ssh into the host from the VM and start the shutdown sequence.

- SharkWipf 8y agoThe main userbase of https://passthroughpo.st https://passthroughpo.st are Linux users first, thus need access to the host as well. While passing a full controller would indeed be the most reliable way (if your controller doesn't have reset bugs and if you have enough controllers available), it isn't always the most practical way.
