[Bug 1396227] [NEW] Cannot enter passphrase with 14.10 in VM

[Aren Cambre]

Public bug reported:

With 14.10 running on VirtualBox, I cannot enter my passphrase. See the
attached image clipped.png. Nothing happens no matter what I press. I
have to hit reset, then I get a more text-based interface on the 2nd
time around, which I can use. See attachment "text based.png".

This 14.10 is a guest under VirtualBox 4.3.20. This also happened with
4.3.18.

14.04 works fine as a guest in the same VirtualBox  environments.
Windows 8.1 x64 is the VirtualBox server.
