Not with VB, but I recently spent a week tracking down an issue with
KVM/QEMU which turned out to be caused by an interaction between my VPN
and the firewall. Even if you don't have a VPN, start by checking your
firewall settings, including the zone the guest network is in. If the
shared folder uses SMB you need to enable that service (and of course
make sure Samba is running on the host system).
