I am sorry I am not familiar with VBox (as I use VMware): I am thinking though that you will find your answer here:

Documentation - VirtualBox

You are doing something wrong... Virtualbox doesn't do anything to the network adapters that would cause them to do that

Only time it ever even touches the networking directly is when it installs the virtual network device to use host only. In the bridged network configuration it uses a spec for networking that was created quite a while ago and VMWare was really the first company to ever use it...
