There is nothing to fix, because Vbox doesn't have a feature to switch automatically.
You have to change the settings for the virtual machine manually.

@blackantt: The "fix" is that you used to have to shut down the VM before you could select a new host NIC. Now you don't. Plus the ticket is 7 years old and the fix was 5 years ago, so this isn't something that just now happened!
