VMWare ESXi 5.1.0/View Horizon 5.2/Windows7

I have an AnywhereUSB/14 and have had success connecting devices using the v3.51 drivers but only with local admin rights. When I try adding or connecting devices with Power User or below, I get an Error that says “Succeeded.” Strange enough. Workaround?

AUSB config utility can be connected as admin, are you able to connect devices to power user?
