Comment 9 for bug 1988504

I updated the hosts libvirt to the version of the backport ppa you mentioned, inserted, delegated the USB-NIC and inserted the cable. It shows the same error as Ubuntu 22.04 before. This strongly suggests, that it is indeed a libvirt bug.

Host:
libvirt0:amd64/focal 8.0.0-1ubuntu7.1~backport20.04.202205310636~ubuntu20.04.1 uptodate
