If I try plugging in a USB keyboard or mouse while my VM is running, the USB device is not detected at all (it doesn't even connect to the host OS). The problem goes away if I suspend or power off the VM, then connect the peripheral, and power it on again. But it is very tedious to do this every time I want to connect my mouse or keyboard to my laptop.

System and VMWare Details

VMWare Workstation Pro 16.2.5 build-20904516

Host OS: Windows 11

Guest OS: Windows 10

What I've already tried:

- Re-installing VMWare tools

- Rebooting the VM

- Setting VMWare to automatically connect USB devices to the host (see screenshot below)

If you know what to do about this, your help would be much appreciated
