in dom0:
lspci|grep -i usb

This should list all available usb controllers along their BDF addresses (in XX:XX.X format)

Then you only need to attach one of them to the USB qube by running:
qvm-pci -a sys-usb X where X is the BDF address of one of the controllers.

Yes, but:
- - you have to find out which physical USB "connector" attached to
which PCI device. (It is mainboard specific) Then you can decide which
should be remain in dom0.

- - you have to remove the "rd.qubes.hide_all_usb" from the GRUB cmd line.
