Same for me. 12.0-STABLE r343501. All ports are 12-LATEST.

I did move back to virtualbox-ose-5.2.26_1 and that got it working again. I
used "svn up -r {2019-03-02} /usr/ports/emulators/virtualbox-ose" to pull
down the old version and built from source. NOTE:e sure all old VB
processes are killed before attempting to start the old version! I had to
kill VBoxSVC, VBoxXPCOMIPCD, and VirtualBox. To be paranoid, I ended up
rebooting my system.

I intend to build packages of both versions to allow easier testing to get
more details, probably with truss and ktrace.
