In my dev environment, by default 'console' element is present in the libvirt.xml. So I can verify it right now.
But as per libvirt document here http://libvirt.org/formatdomain.html#elementsConsole
it says
"If the console is presented as a serial port, the target element has the same attributes as for a serial port. There is usually only 1 console." This could be one reason why libvirt is disconnecting previously opened client connections.
