Description
I have just installed a fresh VirtualBox Version 7.0.10 on a windows host, and a fresh Fedora 38 Linux on it.
I have probably a bit unusual dual monitor setup. Left monitor is in portrait more and the right one is in landscape mode. With both monitors in use and in full screen mode, the mouse location is not where the mouse pointer is.
The only setup that works ok, is when the left monitor is used by virtual screen 1 and right monitor is used by virtual screen 2, AND the top of the both virtual displays is aligned in the gnome settings.
If I alight the bottoms of the displays (is matches my physical setup), mouse location is not where it mouse pointer is. And when virtual screen 2 is on left monitor, the mouse location is even more broken.

Bottoms aligned. The real mouse pointer seen at the bottom and the blue cirle is the location seen by virtualbox.

Even more broken. Real mouse pointer is seen on the bottom right, but mouse location seen by virtualbox is near top left.
This is the option setup that appears work at all.
