Dear Maintainer,

When interacting with a virtual machine using virt-viewer, a secondary display
can be added, which acts as a second monitor within the VM.

However, if this display is removed from virt-viewer using its menu, virt-
viewer becomes unresponsive: it is not possible to interact with the menus,
manage the window or interact with the VM (through virt-viewer).

It should be noted that the VM is not hang or frozen: if one opens virt-manager
and accesses the VM, this forces a disconnection from virt-viewer (which
closes) and the VM is running fine. The virt-manager window with the VM could
be closed then, and virt-viewer re-opened, allowing in further interaction to
proceed normally.


Thanks,
Jonas.
