What makes you think the checkbox is on, or associated with, the guest? I think you are talking about the little USB connector at the bottom right on the screen surrounding guest display, yes? The USB hardware exists on the host, so the host must release the USB hardware and "give" it to a particular guest. To do what you're suggesting, the guest would have to communicate with a service requesting the host to "give" it the hardware. AFAIK, the available VBox commands on the guest are.... VBoxClient VBoxClient-all VBoxControl VBoxService You could research those to see if they would do the needful thing.
