I only see this on Xorg. The wayland session seems to work properly. In
Xorg with 4 fixed virtual desktops the behaviour is the following with a
fullscreen virtualbox instance:

- I start it on desktop 4 and put it fullscreen
- On the virtual desktop list it's on desktop 4 only
- When switching desktops the virtual machine shows up on all desktops (1 
through 4)
- Only desktop 4 actually accepts input into the virtual machine
- If I open a window and place it on desktop 1, it will now work to switch to 
that desktop.
