The 'alias' attribute should *not* be parsed from the XML
provided by
the user. It should only be parsed in the live state XML. In the latter
case no codepath should take us to qemuAssignDeviceAliases. So this is
certainly not the right fix. It sounds like the test case is flawed to
me.
Does the above hold true for qemuDomainAssignPCIAddresses as well?
