That version is the opensource version & typically does not have usb
support (unless you modify). I'd recommend using the PUEL version
(unless you have reasons not to):

and

Support for USB 2.0 devices, VirtualBox RDP and PXE boot for Intel
cards. See this chapter from the User Manual for an introduction to this
Extension Pack. The Extension Pack binaries are released under the
