Stupid me! There was no problem with USBs on the laptop -- I just forgot an important step.
Here it is just in case you don't already know.
After adding the extension pack, you need to add yourself to the "vboxusers" group. To do that, go to Menu -> Settings -> User Manager. While your username is showing under "Select User" box, scroll down the list of groups on the right-hand side until you find "vboxusers". Place check mark in box next to that, then hit "Apply" and enter your password.

You will need to then log out and back in before the setting can take effect. USBs will then be available for use in VBox.
