Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/netblue30/firejail/issues/3063
On Arch Linux, after installing Virtualbox package and Firejail, the only way I can "Start" a VM is if I run Virtualbox from Command Line using /usr/bin/virtualbox.
If I run it via Firejail, even with the --noprofile flag, the following prompt appears when pressing Start on a VM.

Has you changed anything in
/etc/firejail/firejail.config?What is the output of
firejail --debug --noprofile virtualbox?@RedAtRareCandy commented on GitHub (Nov 26, 2019):
Hi rusty-snake,
Wow, you nailed it in one. I had the force-nonewprivs flag enabled in /etc/firejail/firejail.config. Setting this back as the default (no/disabled) has resolved the issue.
Apologies for this - and thanks for pointing me in the right direction!
