vbox 2.1.0 usb issues

Hi,

I got a question here. I don't know if it's an arch specific bug or should I report this upstream.
When I launch vbox 2.1.0 on arch, I need to setup usb filters in order to gain access for my external hardware (mainly for hdd's and external dvd burners). This wasn't happening on the previous version. If I try to hotplug an usb device without the specific-device filters, winxp (on this case) stucks at "usb mass storage device" baloon.

On ubuntu, it works flawlessly. No need of these uncomfortable filters, because everything is detected as it should.

What might be going wrong here?

Thanks...

(*) Pd: hey you! post ye'r fstab.... ok I will.

They say that if you play a Win cd backward you hear satanic messages. That's nothing! 'cause if you play it forwards, it installs windows.
