Description of problem: fail to redirect USB to VM running on rhel7 with grayed 'USB device selection' button in virt-viewer client when redirect it from win7-sp1-x64bit without qxl specified(cirrus vga by default). If specified the qxl vga in qemu-kvm cmdline which has no grayed 'USB device selection' button but met error message prompt(Bug 1099318). So i think it's one of qemu-kvm/spice-server/spice-gtk issue. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): host(launch VM) info: 3.10.0-121.el7.x86_64 qemu-kvm-1.5.3-60.el7.x86_64 usbredir-0.6-7.el7.x86_64 usbredir-server-0.6-7.el7.x86_64 spice-server-0.12.4-5.el7.x86_64 usb-guest(VM) info: rhel7 kerenl-3.10.0-121.el7.x86_64 usb-host(run virt-viewer client) info: win7-sp1-x64bit spice-client-msi-3.4-3(usbclerk-x64-0.3.3.msi & virt-viewer-x64-0.5.6.msi) brewweb download link: https://brewweb.devel.redhat.com/buildinfo?buildID=353689 usb device info: USB 3.0 stick Bus 010 Device 005: ID 1516:6221 CompUSA How reproducible: 100% Steps to Reproduce: 1.launch a rhel7 VM on rhel7 host with usb-redir and without qxl specified(cirrus vga by default). e.g:# /usr/libexec/qemu-kvm -M pc -cpu SandyBridge -enable-kvm -m 2048 -smp 2,sockets=2,cores=1,threads=1 -no-kvm-pit-reinjection...-spice disable-ticketing,port=5933 (-vga cirrus) -device usb-ehci,id=ehci0,bus=pci.0,addr=0x7 -chardev spicevmc,name=usbredir,id=usbredirchardev1 -device usb-redir,chardev=usbredirchardev1,id=usbredirdev1,bus=ehci0.0,debug=3 2.install spice-client-msi-3.4-3(usbclerk-x64-0.3.3.msi & virt-viewer-x64-0.5.6.msi) in win7-sp1-x64bit usb-host and make sure the USB Clerk service started in my win7-sp1-x64bit machine("Computer Managerment------Serces and Applications---- Services"). 3.insert the USB 3.0 stick to a win7-sp1-x64bit usb-host. 4.run the virt-viewer client on the win7-sp1-x64bit usb-host. URL: spice://$rhel7_host_addr:$port 5.select the redirected USB stick device via "'File' menu --- 'USB device selection'" in the virt-viewer client. Actual results: after step 5, fail to select the redirected USB stick device via "'File' menu --- 'USB device selection'", the 'USB device selection' button was grayed out. Expected results: it should work well with usb redirected. Additional info:
