Might be fixed in 4.0 or a future version, but as a temporary workaround
for problem USB devices like that you can assign an entire USB controller
to your webcam-VM. It's not as nice because you lose isolation for that
controller but it should work. If you want to try it, unplug all
unnecessary USB devices. Shutdown both webcam-VM and sys-usb. Look in
sys-usb device list for a USB controller, note the number, remove from
selected list. Add it to webcam-VM Devices, and uncheck Include in memory
balancing in Advanced. You might also need to up the initial memory while
you are in here, try 1024 MB.

Start webcam-VM. Each USB controller only handles some of the USB ports,
so it might be trial and error to find one that handles the empty port you
are plugging the webcam into. Once you figure out which USB port or ports
are now assigned to the webcam-VM, try to avoid plugging anything else
into them besides the webcam.
