Try collecting some debugging output using

  LIBVIRT_DEBUG=1 sudo virsh --connect qemu:///system

It should give a better idea why it failed.

Not getting any useful info:

$ ps awwux | grep libvirtd
root       3396   0.0  0.4  103100  32248  -  I     8:24AM  0:01.05 libvirtd -v -d

$ LIBVIRT_DEBUG=1 sudo virsh --connect qemu:///system
error: no connection driver available for No connection for URI qemu:///system
error: failed to connect to the hypervisor

Tried 1-4 debug levels with the same response.

Thanks,
