GUI glitches on Wayland running "sudo virtualbox"

Description

Buttons and virtual machine names highlight is not working normally when hovering with a mouse and virtual machine window is only partially updated.

The bug appear on recent GNOME on Wayland running "sudo virtualbox". I've reproduced the bug on Ubuntu 20.04 and Fedora 32. There was no such glitches on earlier GNOME versions from Fedora 31 and there is no such glitches on Xorg, only Wayland and recent GNOME.

VirtualBox is required to run from a privileged user to access physical hard drives (as documented in VB manual chapter 9).

I can't change the ticket component to GUI and it is doomed to be lost forever in the abyss of unsorted tickets
