Description of problem:
Unable to get the vm console while trying to connect to the KVM host through ssh option from remote virt-manager. Both KVM host and the client system(where running virt-manager) are in fedora 21 with same qemu-kvm and same virt-manager.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

Fedora 21

openssh-askpass-6.6.1p1-4.fc21.x86_64
virt-manager-common-1.0.1-3.fc21.1.noarch
virt-manager-1.0.1-3.fc21.1.noarch
qemu-kvm-2.1.0-4.fc21.x86_64

How reproducible:
100%

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Install a fedora 21 KVM host and create a VM 
2. Install another fedora 21 system and install virt-manager and try to connect to the KVM host using the ssh option of the virt-manager
3. While trying it will ask to provide password as 'openssh-askpass' package is installed.
4. After giving passowrd client virt-manager will be connected to the KVM host. Then try to take the console, it will show blank.
5. But if will do a passwordless connecttion between the virt-manager client system and the KVM host and then will try to collect, its working perfectly.


Actual results:
console is not available through VM is running.

Expected results:
Console should be accessible.
