Black Screen on Gentoo but not Ubuntu

Hi,
I am running VB 5.1.8 on both Gentoo and Ubuntu Xenial hosts and with a Win10 Guest. In Ubuntu everything works flawlessly even after latest upgrade (in last day or so). However, after the upgrade in Gentoo, upon startup, I get the windows symbol and the animated dot circle on a black background and then just a black background. No other changes made to Gentoo system.

VMs are located on a separate drive and I am using symlinks to point to the targets.

Any suggestions?
Regards
Raoul

What happens if you run the guest normally, without the symlinks?
