I noticed that the shutdown was taking real time, so did an <ALT-d> and
saw the messages of suspending the QEMU running image. After restart
and getting a few things running, I opened the Virtual Machine Manager,
and there was my image already up and running. Only had to open the
window to it and log back in.
Assuming you were logged into the guest when doing the host shutdown,
then if you had to log back in, the guest can't have been suspended and
resumed from where it left off.
