Vagrantfile .gui flag with VMWare

Vagrant
1

Currently using Vagrant 2.3 with a generic/ubuntu2204 running on the vmware_workstation provider. When enabling the gui flag below as true in the vagrantfile, I get a message saying Vagrant timed out while trying to start VM.
config.vm.provider “vmware_workstation” do |v|
v.gui = true
Also tried changing the provider to vmware_desktop and getting the same result. The VM will boot up fine if v.gui is set to false. VMWare Workstation Pro 16 is installed on the machine and the host OS is Ubuntu 22.

Hi there. I have used the following Vagrantfile:

Vagrant.configure("2") do |config|
  config.vm.box = "generic/ubuntu2004"
  config.vm.provider :vmware_desktop do |v|
    v.gui = true
  end
end

My host is ubuntu 22.04 with Workstation 16. The guest is comes up correctly and does not time out. Does the GUI display any guest information during the boot up process?
