$ dmesg | grep -Ei "virtualbox|vbox|promiscuous"

Installed packages are
virtualbox 4.3.14-3
virtualbox-extension-pack 4.3.12-1
virtualbox-guest-iso 4.3.16-1
virtualbox-host-modules 4.3.16-1
With the VM running again, I installed the guest ISO on the guest machine (no help there).
I've also tried disabling 3D accelleration to no avail.
(I have not tried disable the graphics whatnot that got aero working)
UPDATE: This is an ArchLinux packaging issue. I'll be discussing broken 4.3.16 Direct3D Support in a new topic once I find the correct place to post.
