[vfio-users] Trouble passing through USB Root Hub

Hi,

However, just passing through the sound card causes static noises, so I
want to pass through the controller that it's on. I heard that works better
for USB sound cards. I just don't know which controller is which and can't
determine which USB root hub is the right one to pass through.

Thanks,
Jon
