So this one will be pointless since the spice connection is over
loopback on your headless pc.

So you are using wireshark on the headless PC via VNC? I don't see any
TCP connections being created, as I would expect if virt-manager starter
the spice connection after the capture is started. Can you please make
sure virt-manager is closed before you start the capture?
