Hi,
  this is expected. Every USB channel allow to attach one USB device. Is
like having 2 physical USB ports on your computer. If you don't use an HUB
you can attach only 2 USB physical devices. Currently there's no software
USB hub so one USB device takes one USB channel and by default only 2 USB
channels are attached to the VM.
