Which Fedora variant?

I just installed CentOS Stream cloud following the Fedora Server documentation (https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/fedora-server/virtualization/vm-install-cloudimg-centos9/) and it works seamlessly. 

What did you do exactly?

Your description is typical of a mismatched console configuration between virtual machine properties and guest OS configuration and independent of Fedora or any specific Fedora release.
