Non-root virsh connects to qemu:///session by default, which spawns an
unprivileged daemon instead of using the system one, see
http://libvirt.org/uri.html#URI_qemu

It seems this is the error that happens when systemd is not the init [1].

Libvirt only tries to use systemd for creating cgroups for the VM if the
'org.freedesktop.machine1' service is present, otherwise it falls back to the
manual way of creating them.
