[adding back the ML, you probably hit reply instead of reply-all, this
 way other people might help if they know more]

That's because it gets overridden by the configuration files.  This
might be a bug, but it's not related to what's happening.

Libvirt caches the capabilities of the emulators it can find in your
system in order not to waste resources.  These processes are expected to
go away after they reply with all libvirt asks them for.  However, it
seems like the initialization cannot be completed precisely due to the
fact that these processes don't communicate.

There might be some details about qemu-system-alpha that are different
when compared to, e.g. qemu-system-x86 and libvirt is not (yet) adapted
to them, but I installed that emulator and libvirt daemon runs as
usual.  It looks like a problem in QEMU.  Could you, as a workaround,
try uninstalling that qemu binary from your system and restarting the
service?

Also, what versions of libvirt and qemu do you have installed?
