I installed PVE 7.2 and configured hardware passthrough. I can successfully connect to iOS devices by windows VM with USB passthrough, and I can see my iPad in windows.

Then i install macOS13.3.1 followed by this guide:

https://www.nicksherlock.com/2022/10/installing-macos-13-ventura-on-proxmox/

And do Video and same USB pass-through for MacOS vm; all work fine!

However, The USB doesn't work on xcode to detect my ipad , while this USB port can detect a keyboard and mouse, but it only cannot connect to my iPad device.

I confirming that USB passthrough is functional. Is there anything else I need to do? Thank you!

Here is my lsusb show, and I test all ports, none can works with my ipad:
