Keyboard stops working in Virtualbox guest

Problem: Sometimes the keyboard would stop working in Virtualbox guest. The mouse works. The issues temporarily disappears on rebooting the guest.

Suggested solution: If you are in Ubuntu host, install the packages scim-bridge-client
sudo apt-get install scim-bridge-client-qt scim-bridge-client-gtk

Reboot the host.

The issue should be fixed by now.
