If the USB device is registered as a COM port on the host, then you
can just go into the settings of the guest and navigate to the COM1 or
COM2 setting. Now you can define which host COM port to pass through
to your guest. You can select from all registered ports on the host.

I have tested this a couple of years back with such serial ports and
it works.
