This has been covered many times on the VirtualBox > mailing list. Slightly OT: My USB devices -- Nokia phone, Bluetooth dongle, Palm TX, Ipod -- aren't recognized when I plug them in, despite having the correct incantations in the VBox settings panel (i.e. I added filters using "Get filter from device").
