Oracle VirtualBox with usb smart card reader

Under 3.1.2, I was able to use the device with the three guest OSs mentioned above using the following procedure:

1. Connect the device to the host system.
2. Start VirtualBox, but not the VM.
3. Add a USB filter for the device to the VM (required only once).
4. Disconnect the device from the host system.
5. Start the VM.
6. Connect the device to the host system once the VM is running.

This procedure no longer works under 3.1.4. I have been unable to use the device on any guest OS under 3.1.4. I also downgraded to 3.1.2.
