Additional info: Attached the --spice-debug log
It is not clear to me what component would be able to take responsibility for mutual exclusion of redirected USB devices. Ordinarly it would be libvirtd's job, but it doesn't have enough visibility into redirected devices. Perhaps the usb-redir library should be using some kind of lockfile to product against this. Re-assigning to usb-redir, for want of better ideas currently
This bug is the result of an "interesting" interaction between libusb1 and usbredir, which is best fixed at the libusb1 level. I just completed a patch for libusb1 fixing this: http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/forum.php?thread_name=1343469273-6667-1-git-send-email-hdegoede%40redhat.com&forum_name=libusbx-devel Changing component to libusb1, and adding devel-ack.
This is fixed in libusb1-1.0.9-0.6.rc1.el6, moving to modified.
