Ah, it seems when we take a snapshot of a VM on XenServer, the snapshot is not "linked" to the VM it is a snapshot of.
That would make sense because the VM it is a snapshot of might not exist from XenServer's point of view (say, if the VM is in the Stopped state from CloudStack's point of view, then XenServer does not know about this VM because CS has XenServer destroy the VM). xe snapshot-list snapshot-of=8483372f-daee-7988-563a-e83c3dee072f where 8483372f-daee-7988-563a-e83c3dee072f is the UUID of a VM I took a snapshot of via CloudStack will return no results (which would make sense if we never associated the snapshot to this VM).
