Thanks for this solution! While this works, it also has the effect of not "seeing" the vm in commands like "vagrant status" without adding "secondary=true" (although I know I can set an environment variable).
I'd still be willing to put in the time for a proper "autostart" flag if this is more than just an edge case I dreamt up.
