I am thinking whether there is not a problem with monitor setting
something after the machine starts. Libvirt does the same with password,
so maybe it does something with TLS

I tried to remove the VNC password from guest XML and TLS is
working. So actually now the situation is like this:

* guest with password+qemu configured to use TLS = no TLS (VNC AUTH  TYPE=2)

* guest without password+qemu configured to use TLS = working TLS
(VNC AUTH TYPE=19)

I hope it will help to make my issue more clear. I am really
suspecting that the password setup somehow removes the TLS option
from VNC.

Yes, QEMU applied a broken fix for CVE-2011-0011 which means whenever
you set a password, they reset auth type to 'VNC' (type=2).

Thanks for your answer.
I tried to comment out
vs->auth = VNC_AUTH_VNC;
inspired by your patch (the whole patch did not work with my version of qemu ) and it fixed the issue. I will check how the situation will evolve, whether qemu developers will fix it or not.
