Reproduced this issue on qemu-kvm-0.12.1.2-2.112.el6.

1. #virsh edit testru
   edit domains XML file and set 'keymap' attribute in 'graphics' tag from
english to 'ru'

2. star vm
   #virsh start testru
3.input '/'

After step3,we got <

Verified on qemu-kvm-0.12.1.2-2.129.el6.x86_64 using the same steps.

After input "/",we get "/"
