Keyboard locks in MacOS High Sierra

I just upgraded my macOS to High Sierra. I am using my mac as a virtual box host and running windows 10 as a guest VM.
Trouble is my keyboard locks up when switching back to the macOS. The keyboard does not lock up in Windows 10 guest.
The problem started after an upgrade from El Capitan to High Sierra. Prior to the upgrade, the keyboard did not lock up.
I am using a Logitech K800.

Has anyone experienced this problem and resolved it?
:roll:

Thank You

Post the output of the following command from the Terminal:
  • VBoxManage showvminfo "<Your_VM_Name>"
I have the suspicion that you have enabled a blank USB filter.

I bought a new logitech mouse with a unifying receiver and this "fixed" the issue.
Not sure why the problem started after the High Sierra update. Perhaps it's Logitech's own software.
Who knows.

Thanks socratis for your reply.
