I'm puzzled too, have no idea. I also can't repro this with vmtest.sh.
But I can quite reliably reproduce with my local ArchLinux-based qemu
image with different config (see [0] for config itself). So please try
with my config and see if that helps to repro. If not, I'll have to
debug it on my own later.
