Can you share the command line you are using to start the VM? Do you have the 
necessary fields set correctly? eg.

qemu-system-x86_64 ...
-chardev socket,id=char0,path=/my/sock
-netdev type=vhost-user,id=mynet1,chardev=char0,vhostforce,queues=2 
-device 
virtio-net-pci,mac=00:00:00:00:00:01,netdev=mynet1,mrg_rxbuf=off,mq=on,vectors=6

There's more info in INSTALL.DPDK.md on configuring multiqueue.

Thanks,
Ciara
