VirtualBox 5.0 Beta 3 fixes guest-to-host mouse mapping issues for Ubuntu 12.04 LTS (Precise Pangolin), Linux Mint, and Solaris guests, as well as some problems with resizing in openSUSE 10.3 guests. The volume control has been improved, SB16 playback has been repaired, listening for IPv6 network protocols now works better on some systems, support for hotplug of SATA optical devices has been implemented, and high-speed USB devices work properly.
