This could be an issue of 'nc' incompatibility. Does the 'nc' command on
the remote system support the -U option?

If you run the virsh command with LIBVIRT_DEBUG=1 virsh ... you should
see the ssh command being run. See if running the command by hand
produces an error.

Thanks, that was indeed the issue! 
For the archives: the openbsd netcat implementation provides the -U option, where as gnu netcat does not. And I had to restart the daemon after installing the correct version for things to start working.
