I've just tried (inside <devices>...</...>): <console tty='/dev/pts/5'/> and <console type='pty'> <target port='0'/> </console> which I gleaned from http://libvirt.org/drvxen.html but neither seem to do the trick (and the first ones use of an explicit pts looks odd to me...).
I learned yesterday this should be "serial" instead of "console", maybe it fixes also your case.
My understanding was that this was for HVM guests, whereas ARM has a PV console but I suppose I should try it anyway. I've got a flight to catch so it'll be a few days I expect.
Yep, if ARM has a PV console, then we'd need to add tiny bit to the XML to allow us to configure that explicitly, similar to how we do for KVM's virtio-console support.
