I have resolved the mouse selection issue in VirtualBox on Mac OSX High Sierra running GuixSD.

To fix this issue, you have to go to Settings —> Mouse and Touchpad remove the check mark on the Devices tab for Enable this device.

Reboot the computer and this will automatically be re-enabled when the virtual machine boots up again and no more mouse issues when selecting graphical windows and icons on the Xfce 4.12 Desktop

P.S. QEMU does not run fast enough on a mac, but VirtualBox is super fast.


Cheers!
