Ok, that makes everything work much better, with one smaller problem remaining: if there is output flowing to the console at the time that I connect, I usually don't see it until I've sent input to the console, at which point it starts flowing. Often on the first connection to the console output will start flowing immediately, but subsequent connections within a single virsh session will not show output until input is sent. Occasionaly output will start after 10 or 15 seconds, but at other times I've let it sit over a minute with no output. Sending input always resumes the output.
