Detect USB device ID change

[Akubra]

I have a USB device connected to my Proxmox server which is used by a container/LXC. The container uses USB passthrough and has the USB device added as "Device (dev0) - /dev/bus/usb/001/004". This works fine until I restart/have to restart my Proxmox server. Than the device ID in Proxmox might have changed to "dev/bus/usb/001/007" which than causes the LXC to not start (as it can't find the original device with ID "/dev/bus/usb/001/004".
Is there a way for LXCs to be more dynamic in dealing with these type of changes?

One can make a udev rule on the Proxmox host that creates a (fixed) symbolic link to the current actual path when the device is plugged-in (and use that symbolic link for the container): https://forum.proxmox.com/threads/usb-passthrough-to-a-container-lxc.101741/#post-580748
Please note that hot-plug/unplug does not work with containers.
