I am having the same issue as Skyman.
Kubuntu 15.04, all updates applied.
VirtualBox 5.0.2.
Guest additions installed.

Wallpaper does not take up entire workspace area. It appears to be stuck at 
800x600, in the upper-left quadrant.
Cannot bring up context menu with right-click, except within the area where the 
wallpaper is shown. 
This is a 1920x1080 monitor, but with taskbars, the resolution of the VM is 
1920x1034. 
The slider goes all the way over to 2560x1600. The "Unify outputs" button is 
active. Clicking it changes the resolution to 2560x1600, extending the window 
off the screen. 
The problems persist at resolutions above 800x600.

I managed to get it to display somewhat properly by enabling some
drivers and rebooting. I wasn't being deliberate with this, so at this
point I am unsure what I did. Now the wallpaper scales properly, but
there is no right-click context menu anywhere. The folder shortcuts for
Home and Trash do nothing when I click on them. The taskbar and kicker
menu disappear when I click on them. I can get them to come back by
down-sizing the VM window, and then re-maximizing it. But it will
disappear again when I click on it or try to launch something, or even
hover my  mouse over it for several seconds. I opened Settings, but it
will not display; it only appears on the taskbar. After it disappears, I
can hover over where those items ought to be, and will get the info
popup bubble, as if they are still there but invisible.

If I can figure out what it was I did with enabling drivers, I will
provide that information here. I cannot use the VM this way, but perhaps
it will provide some insight as to what is happening.
