Auto mount a shared folder using autofs service with VmwarePlayer

Question

I'm running Ubuntu Budgie in a virtual machine using VMware Player.

To mount the shared folder I use:

sudo mount -t fuse.vmhgfs-fuse .host:/ /mnt/hgfs -o allow_other

but I need to run the command every time when I use the VM.

So, in auto.master I added

/mnt /etc/auto.shared

and in auto.shared

shared -fstype=fuse.vmhgfs-fuse .host:/shared

also tried

shared -fstype=auto .host:/shared
shared -fstype=auto .host:/
shared -fstype=fuse.vmhgfs-fuse host:/

Nothing works, doesn't create/load the 'shared' folder from host
