And I get my Virtual Box screen up and I can do whatever I want except to
star a VM because:
When I do this:

You flopped the URLs and the session logs relative toyour
narrative so I identify them
the first http://www.kitepilot.com/junkX11-VBoxManage.log
debug1: client_input_channel_open: ctype x11 rchan 3 win 65536
max 16384
debug1: client_request_x11: request from 127.0.0.1 33887
debug2: fd 4 setting O_NONBLOCK
debug3: fd 4 is O_NONBLOCK
debug1: channel 1: new [x11]
debug1: confirm x11
debug3: Wrote 48 bytes for a total of 3015
debug2: X11 connection uses different authentication protocol.
X11 connection rejected because of wrong authentication.
debug2: X11 rejected 1 i0/o0
the second http://www.kitepilot.com/junkX11-VirtualBox.log
debug1: client_input_channel_open: ctype x11 rchan 3 win 65536
max 16384
debug1: client_request_x11: request from 127.0.0.1 33888
debug2: fd 4 setting O_NONBLOCK
debug3: fd 4 is O_NONBLOCK
debug1: channel 1: new [x11]

The MIT magic cookie exchange, needed for xauth and
credentials forwarding is failing on the first
The command being passed in is:
debug1: Sending command: VBoxManage startvm Unum
Something like this may work from the client side
su - -c VBoxManage startvm Unum
per: info su:
...
login startup file(s). Additionaly `DISPLAY' and `XAUTHORITY'
environment variables are preserved as well for PAM functionality
Run the first inside a terminal login subshell, and it should
succeed The management interface probably does not spawn a
pty by default and it is needed for the authentication
exchange
