STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. use Wayland session
2. install a guest OS in VirtualBox (I installed Window$ 10)
3. boot the guest OS with VirtualBox
4. click on "Devices" menu of the guest OS window, hover over "Drag and drop"
and choose "Biderectional"
5. open Dolphin
6. drag a folder containing some files from the guest OS and drop it on Dolphin
7. choose "Copy" in the context menu
OBSERVED RESULT
a folder weirdly called "file://tmp/VirtualBoxDropped Files xxxxxxxx" is
created, and the files from the dropped folder
are pasted individually. I can't reproduce this bug with Nautilus file manager.
Please watch the attached screen recording.
EXPECTED RESULT
SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Operating System: Arch Linux
KDE Plasma Version: 5.27.5
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.106.0
Qt Version: 5.15.9
Graphics Platform: Wayland
Processors: 2 × Intel® Celeron® CPU G1820 @ 2.70GHz
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
My VirtualBox runs on Xwayland. Sometimes the guest OS is aborted when I try to
drag the folder from it, or Dolphin shows "folder does not exist" inline error
message after the provided steps.
