If XML changes disappear after virsh edit, then it is a case of you
using XML that wasn't recognized by libvirt.

Did you also remember to declare the namespace? Per
http://libvirt.org/drvqemu.html#qemucommand

it is essential to have something like:

<domain type='qemu' xmlns:qemu='http://libvirt.org/schemas/domain/qemu/1.0'>

before any other <qemu:...> will be recognized.  (The namespace does not
have to be named 'qemu:', but it makes it easier to stick to the naming
used by the examples)
