I'm currently on VirtualBox Version 5.1.4 r110228. I'm able to fix this by downloading v5.1.4 guest additions from here: http://download.virtualbox.org/virtualbox/5.1.4/
Note, you'll need to install the following packages in order to compile the guest additions: * gcc * build-essentials * linuz-headers-$(uname-a) // your architecture here
