Unable to attach device with fresh version of WSL2 - Ubuntu 22

[Leiyks]

Hi all !

I recently switched to WSL and I am trying to connect my USB component to WSL by following the guide provided by Microsoft.
(I tried everything on the a fresh WSL install, so the only command that have been run before following the guide was sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade)

However when trying to actually attach any of my devices I get:

$ usbipd wsl attach --busid 4-1
usbip: error: Attach Request for 4-1 failed - Device busy (exported)

usbipd: error: Failed to attach device with BUSID '4-1'.

I searched for a solution and tried a bunch of things, such as:

• Trying with version 3.0 of usbipd-win and same instructiuons
• Trying with version 2.0 of usbipd-win with instructions of this wiki
• Trying multiple other installation commands I saw on issues/stackoverflow/etc... (linux-tools-virtual, etc...)

What is odd is that in every cases after running the attach command, I tried other commands and got this:

$ usbipd wsl list
BUSID  DEVICE                                                        STATE
...
4-1    USB Input Device, Microsoft Usbccid Smartcard Reader (WUDF)   Not attached
...

$ usbipd list
Connected:
BUSID  DEVICE                                                        STATE
...
4-1    USB Input Device, Microsoft Usbccid Smartcard Reader (WUDF)   Shared
...

Persisted:
GUID                                  DEVICE

So even though the attach command did not work, the device appear as Shared only when not using the WSL commands subset.

Can you please help me figure out what I am missing in all this ?
