You are using the VirtualBox packages from rpmfusion, yes?
I don't, but I seem to recall they operate differently than the packages from
Oracle. The Oracle packages don't rely on akmod and don't put the modules in the
initramfs. The vbox modules are checked for existence when vboxdrv.service is run
and if they don't exist for the running kernel they are built at that time.
Assuming akmods is being used to build the modules when the kernel is updated there
should be some sort of log file in /var/cache/akmods just like there is for nvidia.
Have you checked?
Also, have you considered asking about this on the rpmfusion user's list since it is
their package?

Thanks. I will try Oracle's package for now.
