Ubuntu -> VirtualBox -> Windows -> Photoshop -> why doesn't Alt+scroll work?

Good day!
I have Ubuntu 16.04 x64 OS, VirtualBox 5.1.12 is installed on it, which runs windows 10 pro x64, this was done to be able to work with Photoshop CS6, since wine did not completely suit me with its brakes and crashes.
Photoshop works fine in the virtual machine, but the Alt + scroll key combination (mouse wheel) for zooming does not work in it. For the speed of my work, this is one of the most important problems. Please tell me how to fix this problem?
PS In Ubuntu, I changed the settings for alt. I put it on VirtualBox Win 7 x32 PS cs5, the result is the same. When you hold Alt, there is a slight slowdown. Alt + right click (to highlight the active layer) works. There are no such problems in Wmvare player 12.5, but this software does not suit me.
Tell me more, who uses the same bunch as mine? Does everything work for you?
Thank you for your attention and for your answers.

I also have the same problem, I also use it, I didn’t find a solution, and therefore it most likely doesn’t exist, so I have to poke the mouse on the magnifying glass ..

In the virtual box menu there is a disk item for settings (I don’t remember exactly), was it connected?

This is certainly not a complete solution, but ctrl+"+", ctrl+"-", ctrl+"0" as some kind of replacement for the video. I mostly use them, I'm used to them and the norms.

Isn't it easier to adjust image scaling in Photoshop itself?
Through: Edit -> Preferences -> General -> and mark the checkbox "Zoom with Scroll Wheel"
It works for me without problems, both in Win and in VirtualBox.

The only solution I found using Xeiller 's hint is in Edit-Settings-Tools set "Zoom with mouse wheel" and zoom wheel without alt is enabled
