ZIP it first.

I will not allow links to 3rd party sites that require my e-mail address just to see your log, no way! :roll:

Here are some notes on your setup:
00:00:01.617410 NumCPUs <integer> = 0x0000000000000001 (1)
00:00:01.804941 CPUM: Physical host cores: 4
You have 4 cores available on your host. You could assign a 2nd CPU to your guest, it's going to run a lot smoother.
00:00:01.617844 VMSVGAEnabled <integer> = 0x0000000000000001 (1)
You have chosen the new VBoxSVGA option as your Graphics Controller (VM Settings » Display » Screen » Graphics Controller). Can you try to switch to the more traditional VBoxVGA (without the "S") and see if the situation changes?
00:00:01.814366 VMSVGA3d: OpenGL version: 3.0 Mesa 13.0.6
00:00:01.814368 VMSVGA3d: OpenGL Vendor: Intel Open Source Technology Center
00:00:01.814368 VMSVGA3d: OpenGL Renderer: Mesa DRI Intel(R) Haswell Mobile
Intel isn't known for producing the best solution for GPUs, either in software or in hardware. You may have to disable 2D/3D acceleration in the VM Settings, let's hope not...

You had
00:00:01.617835 3DEnabled <integer> = 0x0000000000000001 (1)
and now you have
00:00:00.983196 3DEnabled <integer> = 0x0000000000000000 (0)
I take it that you tried with both 3D enabled/disabled, with VBoxVGA/VBoxSVGA, all possible combinations, right? And it still crashes?

I don't have anything, maybe test a fresh installation, a new VM I mean, and see if you still get the crash?

What's the video in question BTW, that makes your VM crash, do you have a link?

Have you tried without that? It seems that this "app" is changing the system fundamentally, from apps to services to networking. Please try without it...

Other than that you're playing a video from YouTube at 1080p with no stuttering or any other sound issues. You're already in the "it works" category, not a lot of people get there easily... ;)

I don't honestly know, I can't possibly know, I don't want to know. VirtualBox supports specific guest; unchanged. You got to ask the "app" developers what exactly it is that they're doing.
