Description
As long as I've used VirtualBox this issue has occurred. It's the same as described in bug #5266.
After a period of time the shared clipboard will stop working either in one direction or the other and sometime in both directions. A reboot of the guest will bring it back. Logfile included.
Awhile back I found out that I can do this to rectify it sometimes...
killall -9 VBoxClient && /usr/bin/VBoxClient --clipboard && /usr/bin/VBoxClient --display && /usr/bin/VBoxClient --seamless && /usr/bin/VBoxClient --draganddrop
I'm hoping with the extra information regarding killing of the VBoxClient, that it will lead to a fix. This has been happening for many years, I think more than 10.
