I don't know anything about AQEMU, but I just did exactly this - passed
a USB device plugged into a machine running Debian Stable to a VM
running a Windows guest - using virt-manager. With virt-manager, it's a
simple matter of going to the VM's details, clicking the "Add Hardware"
button, clicking "USB Host Device" from the list, and then selecting
the desired USB Host Device from the next list.
The term generally used for this is "USB passthrough".
