VirtualBox doesn't have a Bluetooth card.

VirtualBox does not include a virtual Bluetooth transceiver. Hence, the only way to connect a Bluetooth device to a VM is to use a USB-Bluetooth adapter... however if that adapter needs drivers then you're out of luck, because they aren't going to be available for Android-x86.

Not a VirtualBox question. I would do a Google search for "android USB Bluetooth".

I'm not sure that "OTG" makes any difference to the point I made above. If you can get drivers it may work, otherwise it won't.
