X works fine.
Guest additions installed as well.
VBox extensions installed as well.

This is fixed in bionic with 5.2.2-3 version (69989.patch).
I don't plan to fix artful, that will go EOL soon, and has an older vbox.
If somebody wants to test a fix, feel free to do it.
In the meanwhile I uploaded the fix in my ppa
This does definitely not "remove the problem" here.
As said before, installing all guest additions makes the ubuntu guest
