Hi,
I'm using VirtualBox on TNAS (I've a F5-221) since it was a beta app and it worked without problem, it was updated til 6.4, but then it was reverted back to 6.1.1 for kernel compatibility after TOS update.
I'm using it with home assistant and now I was looking on how to enable USB device in order to connect USB dongle like SkyConnect for Zigbee and Matter capability.
Even if there is the option to enable USB in the virtual machine, when trying to add a device, nothing is available.
The USB Dongle is correctly plugged in the NAS and also recognized, but it is not passed to Virtual Box.
The extension pack is correctly installed and enabled.
In all the forums, the solution provided to have the USB passthrough available in Virtual Box was to set correctly the user rights, and so to add your user in the vboxusers, this would have magically fixed the issue!
In TOS there is no vboxusers group, only vbox, anyway I've created the vboxusers group and added in it vbox and admin (same thing for vbox group).
I've restarted several times the NAS, unplugged and plugged back the dongle, but nothing: in VBOX still no device available.
I've also tried to manually insert the filters providing the Vendor ID and Product ID retrieved from slush, but still nothing.
It seems I'm almost there to have it working, but I don't know what else I can do.
Anyone from Terramaster can help me out understand which is the correct group, user or authorization to provide to have the USB working in Virtualbox?
