I have no strong preference towards using a user-specific libvirt socket
versus the system libvirt socket, as I'm running this on my single user
system.

This worked the same as `virsh -c qemu:///system` for me (as which one
doesn't really matter to me), and it gave me the idea to try using
/session in virt-manager instead. In virt-manager I went to File > Add
Connection..., set the hypervisor to Custom URI... and set the URI to
qemu:///session like you said.
This worked! I'm not sure why I can't use the system one, but this is
good enough for me :). I'm also not actually sure why this works, since
I don't have the socket file shown by `libvirtd --help`...
Oh well :D good enough for me!
Thanks,
Robby
