Debian 11 Latest - Mouse and Keyboard Don't Always work on boot

frequently, the mouse and keyboard don't work on boot from my Debian 11 guest VM. Most of the time, a reboot of the VM from Parallels resolves the issue. Has anyone else seen this and found a solution?

 

I experience the same issue even after reinstalling Parallels Tools.
What else can fix this issue?

 

Same here, with the latest Arch Linux ARM.

 

Same here, I'm affected on Manjaro ARM (ArchLinux-derivative).

Typing/smashing keys while in Grub/the boot console seems to somewhat lessen the problem, but I still sometimes need to boot the machine multiple times until the keyboard is being recognized.

It seems to be some kind of problem with the XHCI / USB host controller.

I would be willing to provide a ready-made image for Parallels engineers which can reproduce this issue, if that would be helpful.

 

I'm having the same issue with Parallels Version 18.2.0 (53488) on M1, with both Kali Linux and Fedora. Haven't been able to reliably reproduce it, but it happens regularly. Also, restarting a VM is less likely to resolve it that doing a separate shutdown, then a start.
Since I'm new to Parallels, is there a bug report already? Where can I open one, if not?

 

Same here. Very frustrating. Have to reboot several times before it works.

 

Me too. It's been so long I forget exactly when this started happening for me. I know for sure I've seen it with my fedora 36 and fedora 37 VMs. I don't think it happens when the prtools fail to load for some reason (e.g. dkms build failure).

 

This happens to me when I boot Kali. I'm running it on M1. My kernel version is 5.18.0-kali5-arm64, if i upgrade to anything higher than this, it doesn't always work on boot-up as the OP described. I've tested it countless times and always have to revert to a previous snapshot. It has been happening for the last year for me.
