I was not able to attach a CDROM device either.
via virsh, I get this:
attach-disk winxp /home/martin/path/to/my.iso hdc --mode readonly --driver file
--type cdrom
(I tried various combinations of --driver, --type and --mode as well as
hda,hdc,/dev/hdc,cdrom,/dev/cdrom and /dev/media for the target)
via virt-manager, I get this in an error box after completing the "add storage"
wizard:
Unable to complete install: 'Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/share/virt-manager/virtManager/addhardware.py", line 514, in

raise RuntimeError, "Unable to attach device to live guest, libvirt

RuntimeError: Unable to attach device to live guest, libvirt reported error:

** Changed in: libvirt (Ubuntu)
Status: New => Confirmed
