This looks like a duplicate of #3894. Please see if the test build there works round the problem for you.

This issue happens in my installation scenario too. This is a blocking issue, as the host key doesn't work either. So if in full screen mode the VB toolbar is not enabled the user gets into a dead-end, as the resolution described by nathanma is not possible.
Seems related to #8461, and as different guests OSes were tested, it doesn't seem related with the guest.
