Yes, that might be possible.

A couple of suggestions to narrow it down further:
- try to reproduce with 2 or 4 vcpus (3 cpus is probably not a well
tested configuration)
- try to reproduce with the ahci-hd device emulation instead of virtio-blk.

If this problem is reproducible then I am happy to work with you to
get to the bottom of this.

best
Neel
