Can you compare the qemu-kvm command line between:
- the  nested ESXi 6.7 on top of the standalone KVM hypervisor
- the nested ESXi 6.7 on top of oVirt based hypervisor

Also,
which OS version of the standalone KVM hypervisor?
which cpu for the KVM hypervisor
which oVirt version?
which cpu for the oVirt hypervisor?
did you use e1000 as the network interface type also in oVirt for the ESXi
6.7 VM?
