I solved this problem in Kubuntu Hardy selecting in KDE->System Configuration -> Language-> Keyboard : Keyboard spanish, es. And selecting the checkbox which says "Incluir diseño latino", in english will be "include latin design/layout".
Note: The checkbox only appears when you mark your language in right column.
All this for spanish of spain language, and virtualbox 1.5.6 included with hardy.
