I'm using gnome-boxes to run an Ubuntu VM (Arch Linux host). From the home screen of GB (where all the VMs are shown) I click on the VM's thumbnail and it opens and takes all GB window. Everything works fine, I can put GB on another virtual desktop and also minimize it. My VM keeps running in background for days… But if from GB I click the back button to go back to the home screen (where all my VM thumbnails are) after a few seconds my VM seems to go into sleep and I cannot reach it anymore (has bridged networking) from my host system. I have to click on the VM thumbnail again to resume it. Is this normal? And what can I do if I want to run two VMs at the same time?

Ok, It was easier than expected... vm properties > system tab > execute in background > on :)
