Comment 2 Cole Robinson 2012-03-02 16:15:44 UTC 
Thanks for the report, but this is intentional. Any hotplugged changes a persistently added to guests in virt-manager, which I think is much more intuitive. It's like if you attached a PCI device to a physical machine, when you shutdown the machine it doesn't automatically eject! Libvirt supports this for good reason but it shouldn't be default virt-manager behavior.

Closing as NOTABUG.
