--- Comment #12 from Jason W. Bacon <jwb at freebsd.org> ---

This sounds similar to a PR for desktop-installer from a user who figured out
that guest additions have a problem with members of the wheel group:

https://github.com/outpaddling/desktop-installer/issues/8

In short, if a user in the FreeBSD guest is a member of wheel and vbox-guest*
are enabled, the FreeBSD desktop environment is unresponsive.  Confirmed for
XFCE and Lumina.  Removing the user from wheel or disabling vbox guest via
/etc/rc.conf alleviates the problem.
