If I don't have the VirtualBox GUI running, virsh fails to connect:

This is typically a sign of a COM object ID mismatch between VirtualBox and libvirt. What versions of libvirt and VirtualBox are you running? By any chance are you running a beta or release candidate of VirtualBox?
libvirt-0.9.2-rc2, and VirtualBox-4.0.8-SunOS-r71778.pkg from www.virtualbox.org
I'm running libvirt-0.9.1 and the same VirtualBox (VirtualBox-4.0.8-SunOS-r71778.pkg). Richard
