After upgrading qgnomeplatform-qt5 from 0.8.4-12 to 0.9.0-1 on Fedora 36, the platform/theme settings are not applied in VirtualBox VM processes anymore.

I.e., after launching the VirtualBox, the main application window is correctly themed (uses dark theme as expected), but launching
a VM, its window is not (appears to be using fusion theme, and opening Devices -> Optical Drives -> Choose a disk file opens a fusion-style file selection dialog).

Bisection between 0.8.4 and 0.9.0 seems to point to this commit: 28f14d3

Instrumenting the portal hint provider code in HEAD with extra debug message that dumps resultMessage.type() and resultMessage.arguments() here shows that type is 3 (QDBusMessage::ErrorMessage) and arguments are

(QVariant(QString, "Portal operation not allowed: Unable to open /proc/95226/root"))

So it seems that we are now trying to use the portal but cannot really do so - presumably due to VirtualBox's own sandboxing. And the portal provider codepath lacks a fall back for such cases.
