I haven't tried other guest OSes.  I'll give Debian and Windows 7 a try.

Title:
  time never catches up to reality after VM sleep

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  When I run Ubuntu in a VM, then sleep the VM for a little while, I
  expect time to eventually catch up to reality, because I have "Set the
  time ... Automatically from the Internet".  However, time never does
  catch up.

  I can trigger a catch up by toggling the datetime indicator to
  "Manually", wait a little bit, then toggle back to "Automatically from
  the Internet".  I may have to do this a couple of times to fix the
  time.

  This tells me that it's not a problem with the VM environment
  specifically, but a problem with coordinating time over the internet.
