DNS issues with minikube and virtualbox: 6.0.0,127566

I am seeing new issues with Minikube and Virtualbox 6.x.

Both minikube and virtualbox installed via brew cask.

The /etc/resolv.conf has:

nameserver 10.0.2.3

At first dns works, but after a period of time (say 3-5 min) dns lookups in the minikube guest start to fail. If I manually hack /etc/resolv.conf to 8.8.8.8 - it works for a short period of time, but eventually DHCP resests the nameserver back again, and lookups start to fail.


Any clues?

Minikube is a program that relies on VirtualBox, but modifies its configuration files in unknown ways to us, and with unknown consequences, especially the networking part. It is not supported on these VirtualBox forums/channels, they have their own support channels. If you are having this problem with a standalone version of VirtualBox (after a complete uninstallation of Minikube), then we can continue this discussion.
