I had a similar problem.

Are you logged on locally to the box or are you exporting the virt-manager display to a remote server?

The reason I ask, is because it should work if you are logged on locally. If you are logged on remotely via ssh -X have a look for bug 512253 - Virt Manager (not allowed to post liks yet!)

There is a work-around is to use virt-install instead.

Let me know how you get on. I'm using Fully Virtualised VM's installed from an ISO local to the Host.
