No I'm pretty sure I'm getting the right machine object and the session is
valid as well. I can change other properties.
Do I have to call saveSettings() after changing cableConnected, or will it have
immediate effect without calling saveSettings()?
Thanks, Karoline

This means you're using the wrong Machine object, or completely lack the
session handling... it works fundamentally the same way as if the VM
isn't running: create a session, get a shared lock (an exclusive one
isn't possible while the VM is running), and use the Machine reference
associated with this session.
That one is writable.
