Public bug reported:

The version of KVM currently in karmic does not appear to have a fully
functional dynamic block device attach/detach:

libvirt/kvm appear to believe that the block device has been attached,
but the device is not showing up in the guest (this process with the
same VM/kernel works on Jaunty).  Apparmor is disabled.
