Linux kernel >= 2.6.32 and VirtualBox >= 3.1.6 causes "Delayed Write Failed" for iPod on WinXP guest

Description
If I run VirtualBox (any version since 3.1.6) on a Linux host using kernel 2.6.32 or higher, I cannot use iTunes -- which is running on a Windows XP SP3 32-bit guest -- to sync my iPod through the USB interface. After about 30 minutes of sitting around trying to write to the iPod, Windows throws up a "Delayed write failed" error, as seen in the attached screenshot (E:\ is the drive letter of the iPod). I have tried enabling/disabling write caching on the drive through the Windows Control Panel (which was suggested by several online sources), but changing this setting has no effect.

I guess I should clarify that I have not tried running any version of VirtualBox before 3.1.6. In other words, I'm not implying that the problem appeared in 3.1.6. It could have existed in previous versions, but I don't know if it did because I never tested them.
