Yep, here's debug output from a working virt-viewer session with virt-viewer 0.6.0-11.el6 (from centos 6.6):

So yeah.. here we have the:
(virt-viewer:3989): virt-viewer-DEBUG: Opening direct TCP connection to display at localhost:5901:-1
Opening direct TCP connection to display at localhost:5901:-1

I wonder why the newer virt-viewer version doesn't do/try that anymore.. time to look at the source I guess.
