I can confirm this behavior, which I encountered when fixing LxcRunner tests, however I only hit it when the lxc virt server. I did not use a-virt-lxc that much until recently, so I can't tell when it stopped working. I worked around the issue by manually running `lxc-attach containername` to jump into the container. -- Paride
