5.2.6 Seamless issue Debian Host (Windows 7 32bit guest)

Description
On my test machine I have Debian 9.3, Kernel 4.9, Virtualbox 5.2.6. The Windows 7 virtual machine is working nicely, BUT when I enter Seamless mode, the video inside the VM window is not updated. I click and type and don't see things happening. When I try to move the VM window, I'm mostly unsuccessful. I thought that this might be the video driver in use on the host so I replaced the open one with the Nvidia driver, but it had no effect.
Another user says that they had the same issue and reverted to 5.2.0 which resolved the issue. The thread is here https://forums.virtualbox.org/viewtopic.php?f=7&t=86447
I am working on my test machine and would be happy to use alpha code to test the issue. (i.e. I will not cry if my virtual environment gets borked)
