Seemed like a good idea and it may have done some good, but
if I disconnect the USB connector to the scanner and then
reconnect it, an lsusb in the VM does not see it again. I have
to reboot the VM to get it back.
You might be able to use some combination of the following commands so
you don't have to reboot the VM:
nodedev-reset
nodedev-reattach
nodedev-detach
(see the virsh man page)
Possibly use can create a UDEV rule (running some combination of the
commands above) on the host so that if you hot plug the USB scanner it
will hot add it to the VM.
