I noticed that Neo2 in combination with Ubuntu 22.04 Host and Ubuntu Guest in Virtualbox 6 still doesn't work correctly.
The workarounds mentioned in https://www.virtualbox.org/ticket/2595 didn't work.
I had to make sure that a standard layout is set as the top one under "Settings > Keyboard > Input Sources" in the Host OS. Only then did the guest receive the correct keycodes.
Maybe you could add a paragraph mentoning this on https://www.neo-layout.org/Probleme/VM/ ?
Sadly, this in turn seems to ruin level 3 navigation and numpad in the host completely, so you have to choose between a rock and a hard place.
I wanted to submit this to Virtualbox' bugtracker too, but when I saw all the information you need to disclose just for filing a ticket, I decided it wasn't worth the effort.
