Operating system (host: 5.0.40_Ubuntu r115130 guest: ubuntu 16.04).
file->Preferences->Input:
Host key combination: Right Ctrl
Insert Crtl-Break : Host-C
Any Ideas ?

I'm not sure what you're describing there, but shouldn't LeftCtrl+C send a Ctrl+C to the guest? Not the RightCtrl one, the LeftCtrl one...
But in any case, it looks like you're using the distro's fork version of VirtualBox. You can either ask in their forums for help, or completely remove/uninstall/delete/purge their version and install the official version from the Downloads section of VirtualBox (
https://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/Downloads).
If that doesn't work you should try the latest test builds (
