#virt-manager: Auto resize VM with window not working - stuck on 1024x768

Trying out for first time. Running 3.1.7 in virt-manager (tested video: virtio with(out) 3D accel and QXL) but auto resizing of the desktop is not working. As a result I'm stuck with a 1024x768 screen.

Is virt-manager/KVM supported by Omarchy?

Tried installing spice-vdagent, which does unlock (not grayed out anymore) the "Auto resize VM with window" display option in virt-manager. Though vdagent seems more X11 related? Not sure how this should work in wayland.

Help is appreciated. Thanks.

Quick workaround:
$ *hyprctl monitors * # to list available resolutions
$ nvim .config/hypr/monitors.conf and set monitor size manually. For example
monitor=,1920x1140@60,auto,atuo
$ reboot (on save of hyprctl reload the display is not changed)
