I don’t have Z-Wave. But the Sonoff Zigbee stick I added recently went without a hitch.
In Proxmox, you “passthrough” the USB device to the HAOS VM. And then it’s recognized by HAOS just like if it was plugged into the Pi.

The only problem I had was that if I plugged in an additional USB serial device (like a Wemos), the serial port would change in HA an break the Zigbee2MQTT. But that was an easy fix (and probably would’ve been the same on the Pi):

Sonoff Zigbee USB ttyUSB0 becomes ttyUSB1 when I plug in another USB serial device (esp8266) and breaks both ESPHome and Zigbee2MQTT

I noticed today my Zigbee2MQTT stops working when I plug in an ESPHome device to upload new firmware to it. When I set up the Sonoff Zigbee stick, it was recognised as ttyUSB0. So I entered that in the Zigbee2MQTT addon config page. It worked perfectly, until today I plugged in a ESPHome device to update it’s firmware. The firmware uploading would keep failing and it said something about multiple devices on ttyUSB0. Then I noticed in the list of devices to choose from (in ESPHome addon), it sa…
