My user is in libvirt group
$ id

I have tried 'virsh -c qemu:///system 'list'' as well. Still does not
work.
so far so good. So what about the output? Do you get any exceptions or
errors? If no virtual machines are up and running at the moment you will
still have to specify the "--all" parameter in order to list also offline
machines:
$ virsh -c qemu:///system 'list --all'
Maybe you could just try to run virsh in debug mode and figure out whats
happening when errors arise:
$ export LIBVIRT_DEBUG=1; $ virsh -c qemu:///system 'list'
