virsh snapshot-create-as with quiesce option times out

Hi all! I'm still working on the live backup of a couple vm's and what happens most of the times es that when I execute virsh with the snapshot-create-as with the --quiesce option the process finishes with an error that reads I tried turning up the debug level but found nothing that appears to be of interest and I can connect successfully to the qemu guest agent since the following command returns the correct value I also tried running the qemu-ga agent on the guest with debugging enabled and when I issue this last command I can see the agent talking to the host but when I issue the quiesce option the guest agent shows nothing at all. Is this by any chance a known bug? Is there something obvious I'm missing? What else can I provide to help debug this issue? Thanks in advance! Best regards, David Wells.
