Cause:
When there's no path provided for a guest <channel/> libvirt generates one. But it uses a very long prefix for that ("/var/lib/libvirt/qemu/channel/target/") which makes it very easy to hit the limit for socket paths.
Consequence:
Users are unable to connect to the host side of the socket.
Fix:
The location of the socket was moved under "/var/run/".
Result:
The path is now much shorter and users can connect to the socket just fine.
