Title of the patch: “first not main” sounds un-english because it mixes adjective and noun-used-as-adjective. Contrast “first, not last, connexion” (with commas, I believe). Jonathon, any suggestion? Is “first non-primary” correct, or does “primary” mean something else for SPICE?
Overall comment on the commit log: I don’t understand the problem nor the fix from the log. What causes such a delay between the creation of channels that could cause a ticket to expire? I understood from the discussion yesterday that this was the time between the SPICE connexion (which may happen at boot time) and the launch of the streaming agent (which may have to wait until run level 5 is reached). So I believe the solution here is to let the client open the streaming channels, assuming there will be a streaming agent showing up later to provide the data, this simultaneous opening of all channels for the client ensuring that there is no delay. Is my understanding correct? (it does not derive from the log but from the discussion yesterday)
Assuming I got it somewhat right, I would add that reason for the long delay to the commit log, as well as indications of how long a ticket stays valid and in which context (can this happen in RHEL, for example?)

could you qualify “ticket” (what type of ticket, who issues it)

Maybe rephrase to explain that authentication would fail?

That sentence as written confuses me more than it helps. Is it a temporary solution, or a partial solution?

Is it really worth splitting the if and the creation in a separate function?
As written, it looks like we are creating streaming channels for every device, and the comment is required. If the ‘if’ was in there, the intent of the loop would probably be clearer.
