Qubes OS version:
4.0.
Affected component(s):
usb devices
usb widget
Steps to reproduce the behavior:
insert an usb device.
connect it to a VM via usb widget.
Expected behavior:
do your work with the usb, and when you're done, eject it via usb widget.
Actual behavior:
the usb device is disconnected with its respective VM. Sometimes right after you connect it, sometimes 5 minutes later, while you're in the middle of your work with it.
this is not the case in every time you insert a usb device. there are sessions where they properly behave from start to end, too, but the former case is frequent.
General notes:
this was a problem known in 3.2., too, with more intensity.
with 4.0. its persistence and scope seem to have been diminished to allow for some peaceful work with a usb device.
