Mouse Nav Forward button works, but Nav backwards seems to be mapped to Paste. How to fix? Virtual box guest.

I have bionic running as a vbox guest on a mojave macbook pro.
The mouse navigation forward button (side buttons) works as expected. The navigation back button appears to be mapped to paste.
I checked the host OS for this behavior, too ... macos appears to be ignoring those buttons, so I don't think it is the culprit.
xev reports forward is button 8 and forward is button 2.
I tried some of the mapping instructions, but X -configure crashes
