What am I missing?

Bob,

What Virtualbox release are you using?. An updated Virtualbox has been released (5.0.12) last Friday if I remember correctly, it contains fixes for running the latest versions fo RHEL (7.2).

Maybe indirectly it will also help with CentOS.
I'm just shooting in the dark here as you didn't provide specifics about your VBox version or Linux distros'  versions.
