Please attach the XML document used to start the VM in both places (working and non-working). I can't tell if there's a difference without seeing those.

I'd speculate that it's timing. There's more time for the locks to propagate or an offending process to terminate. The error message definitely does not look like a permission issue, and qemuSetupImagePathCgroup:75 is in the end a no-op on on non-device paths (makes sense only for LVM logical volumes, partitions etc).
