Issues building VirtualBox packer image of Windows Server 2012r2

Issue

I'm following this great how-to and all goes well until packer needs to shutdown the newly provisioned which fails with Caot unregister the machine 'packer-virtualbox-iso-1469510168' while it is locked. See full log below at the end of this question.

I've done the following

• Check no stale VirtualBox VMs are left around with that name (all clear)
• Update VirtualBox to latest available (5.1.2 r108956)
• Reboot my host computer

but this consistently happens.

Environment

• Host OS - OS X El Capitan 10.11.5
• VirtualBox - 5.1.2 r108956
• Packer - 0.10.1
• Boxstarter - Current Master (last commit eb1cd9f86a2a8b1ee54cc14cc2c23ace93e01b96)
