After installation of package spice-vdagent inside vm with (fresh install of) Lubuntu 14.04, there is only spice-vdagentd running (yes, even after login/logout or restart):
user@machine:~$ ps aux | grep spice-vdagent
root 961 0.0 0.0 4432 884 ? Ss 11:00 0:00 /usr/sbin/spice-vdagentd
But for e.g. shared clipboard to work, spice-vdagent process (runs under user account) must run too.
After its manual launch (LXTerminal -> spice-vdagent - it automatically went into background):
user@machine:~$ ps aux | grep spice-vdagent
root 961 0.0 0.0 4432 884 ? Ss 11:00 0:00 /usr/sbin/spice-vdagentd
user 1798 0.0 0.0 5804 956 ? Ss 11:14 0:00 /usr/bin/spice-vdagent
...and shared clipboard is working.
In "Start" menu, Preferences -> Default applications for LXSession, Autostart tab, is entry Spice Vdagent presented and ticked.
Workaround is to untick it, restart (well, logout may be sufficient, but did restart, only to be sure), then tick it back again.
After then, spice-vdagent process is autostarted reliably. So maybe some deficiency in package installation script?
Interesting is, that this problem wasn't presented back in final beta time, it went wrong after some update around release time.
(from this reason, did fresh install to avoid influence of some relict from pre-release time).
For completeness sake, there definitely isn't problem in virtual machines host (Ubuntu 14.04), all other VMs (are just fine in this regard).
(at least) affected spice-vdagent package version: 0.14.0-1ubuntu1
