I am running Ubuntu 12.04 desktop 32bit, and I am having this same issue, I don't have a keyboard plugged into my system, I only use VNC to connect to it. I have VirtualBox running with 3 active VMs, I noticed it seems to happen as soon as I disconnect the VNC connection. I am able to kill -9 the PID, and it goes away. I have been watching for about 30 mins since I last disconnected and killed the PID with no re- occurrence. I hope this can help. If there is any other info needed, please let me know.
