Unity mode entry fails with device plug/unplug sounds in Win7 VM

Running on an MacBooAir6,2 13" with 8GB RAM and OSX 10.9.4.  Connected to an external display with 1920x1200 resolution.  VM RAM is 2 GB with 2 CPU cores assigned.  VM is Win7 Ultimate with all the latest updates as of 2014-09-16.

 

After the upgrade to Fusion 7 (from 6) and HW version 11, I cannot enter Unity mode.  When I press the Unity button, I hear a few device plug/unplug sounds from the Win7 VM and it fails back to Single Window mode.

 

Tried everything including the following:

  1. Raising VM VRAM setting to 2GB.
  2. Enabling Retina options in VM Display settings.

 

What is going on with Fusion?  Why can't it, all of a sudden, handle Unity mode?

 

I would have thought a simple configuration like this (1920x1200 external monitor connected to a laptop) would have been tested before the product is released.  Sigh ....

 

VMX log showing what happens when I try to enter Unity mode is here: fusion7 unity fail - Pastebin.com
