I'd suggest you to try with the current git head. I had had some trouble
with this the past week or so:
- 0.8.4 has a bug when the bus/device pair has a number > 8 (it's
loaded as octal by qemu, but passed as decimal by libvirt);
- 0.8.5 release will not allow access to the device if cgroups are
enabled.
Not sure about the PCI stuff sincerely, but at least USB with the
current git head works fine for me (finally).
Except for the caveat that there are huge numbers of USB devices that simply
don't work with QEMU at all, due to limitations of QEMU's USB support
