I had 5.0 and unsuccessfully upgraded to 5.2 RC1 and then after some troubleshooting ended up on 5.1, on Ubuntu 16.04 64-bit.
I connect to host via mstsc/xrdp (sessman-Xvnc) and use LXDE.
It used to work more or less fine with v5.0, but with 5.1 (or maybe after some packages were updated, removed, etc.) when I key in anything in VirtualBox UI, keyboard mapping is incorrect. For example if I type "test" in New > Name, it becomes "ngbn", or if I try to type numbers in NAT settings, they're completely different.
Elsewhere (in other apps, in the same session), I can enter text properly. In LXDE's Language Support, it's set to English (same as before), and Keyboard Input Method System is "none" (also same as before; I also tried IBus, didn't help) and both of these I applied System Wide just to be sure - didn't help.
So far VirtualBox is the only app that has this problem. In GUI under Preferences > Language I selected English (built-in) (before with 5.0 Default worked fine, now even English doesn't work).
Any ideas on what else to check?

After 5.0 to 5.1 upgrade, host keyboard mapping wrong only for VirtualBox application
Re: After 5.0 to 5.1 upgrade, host keyboard mapping wrong only for VirtualBox application
I'm on 5.2 now, still seeing the same problem.
How can I tell whether it's MSTSC/XRDP or VB that's causing this problem?
It seems something between VNC and Qt5.... Or something.

Workaround: now I have to use TightVNC Viewer instead of mstsc/xrdp/Mate.

I'm on 5.2.4 and this is still a problem due to Qt behavior.
I'm affected over both VNC and RDP so either way I can't use VB GUI remotely...
