Well, this does not prove that qemu replies to all commands issued by
libvirt. For that we would need debug logs as referred to above.
BTW: The stack trace looks a bit old (the line number do not match with
the current git HEAD) - what's the release you're running and does the
problem occur with the current git HEAD too?

The version used for backtrace is 3.2.0, now I have also tried the
current downloaded with git but the problem is always present.
This is the current version log file, set as shown on the DebugLogs page:
