Fooling around with this problem, I clicked on Devices>Optical Drives and unchecked VBoxGuestAdditions.iso.



I then got a question asking: Would you like to try to force ejection of this disk? I clicked the [Force Unmount] box.



Next, go back to Devices>Optical Drives and add a check tp the VBoxGuestAdditions.iso



At least I'm no longer getting an error. Hope this works for you
