I tunneled the USB device to it:

I could be wrong. But I believe you want managed='yes' so that libvirtd detaches the device from the host automatically.
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.
