Hello, George.
I run Fedora 38 as host and Windows7 as guest.
As far as I was able to understand, the problem of guest window
freezing comes from the incorrect configuration parameters.
As I wrote, setting that parameter to infinite value solves the issue.
It works already several week for me.
Hope this helps...:-)
