No idea. How are you launching qemu, with virt-manager? can you post the
qemu command line? If not virt-manager then what client are you using?
what are the various versions?

rpm -q spice-server qemu-kvm spice-client spice-gtk virt-manager

What guest are you running?

Can you create a network capture where you:
1. close any spice connections (important, current limitation of wireshark
dissector)
2. start capture
3. connect client (if it's virt-manager, open the window)
4. press some keys on the keyboard
5. stop capture
