System doesn't assign USB devices, /dev/vboxusb/* , tested on F18,  without do: 

/sbin/udevadm trigger --subsystem-match=usb --action=add

that is a bug ? 

I'm here : "Special device nodes which are not interesting for anything
else, and it is absolutely guaranteed that there is no current user at
this moment, can be triggered that way, check: --sysname-match= in the
udev man page"
