Yes this is the correct solution for now. Go to Oracle's site, navigate to Old Builds and then select the virtualbox-ext-pack, version 5.0.24, it's the same file for all Architectures, download it then open it with VirtualBox, using the context menu and then VirtualBox will happily download it and install it. I think it would be advisable to return the ownership of /usr/share to root, because of keeping the system safe. If you have taken ownership of /usr/share/sounds because of playing the Login sound or System sounds you'll have to take ownership of that folder only again.
