I have been running into the same "VMMDev: vmmDevHeartbeatFlatlinedTimer: Guest seems to be unresponsive. Last heartbeat received 4 seconds ago" on Windows 10 messages as everyone else paired with heavy host CPU usage from the VM's processes.

I have been trying all of the core count, chipset, audio, virtualization mode, ... tweaks people are discussing trying to narrow it down.

So far I do not have a solid reproducible minimal set of circumstances yet, but I am seeing a pretty high correlation with whether or not detachable start was used.

Any advice on the full set of things everybody experiencing this should check and document so we can try to debug the root cause and get it fixed for all?

Please do not necro-post. Problems with the ancient VirtualBox version and host OS discussed above are unlikely to be relevant to you.

Start your own topic and provide a zipped VM log.
