I have a fresh Ubuntu 18.04 running on virtualbox 6.0, in which I’m installing the latest Home assistant docker image (0.88.2).
I map a local directory for the HA conf files with: -v /home/myuser/ha_data:/config
If the /home/myuser directory is a plain directory on the host everything works as expected, but if I export the directory as a shared directory with Virtualbox I get the following errors when starting up Home assistant:

Home assistant obviously has write permissions to the directory, the home-assistant_v2.db is there and all other files. HA runs as expected, except for the recorder component.
Has anyone seen this before, and is there a workaround? Would be good to easily edit my config files form my host.
