I reported this same problem in this[1] thread on freebsd-ports@.  In that 
post I provided a link to a similar report for KDE on openSUSE that 
required a dbus patch to fix.

I'm guessing that either the latest versions of VirtualBox have a bug in 
their dbus interface, or the version of dbus we have needs to be updated.
