thanks for the pointer.

I literally ran in the guests commandline

    GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="console=tty0 console=ttyS0,115200n8"
    sudo update-grub

which did change anything to the behavior on the hosts cli

   Connected to domain '[domain]'
   Escape character is ^] (Ctrl + ])

and then nothing

so ... what is the error I am making?
