Workaround is functional on Ubuntu 18.04 daily build - without it, BOOT
PROCESS WILL FREEZE! after install spice-vdagent package on starting
spice-vdagent(d) service.

But as spice-vdagentd in result hasn't information about sessions, so
there is (in man documented) limitation on one instance of spice-vdagent
client.

And there are two instances running - one for gdm, one for each user.
Service spice-vdagent is complaining:

spice-vdagentd[540]: multiple agents in o ne session, disabling agent to avoid 
potential information leak
spice-vdagentd[540]: closed vdagent virtio channel

Workaround is to sudo killall spice-vdagent and then run spice-vdagent
as a current user.

It would be very helpful to fix spice-vdagentd collision with systemd-
logind, because it is destroying Ubuntu guest experience (seemingly
unbootable system and even then very tricky to get decent interaction
with vm working).
