Public bug reported:

environment:
server: centOS 6.5, 3.14.19, x86_64
qemu-kvm: QEMU PC emulator version 0.12.1 (qemu-kvm-0.12.1.2), Copyright (c)

2003-2008 Fabrice Bellard
virt-manager: 0.9.0

VM: centOS 6.5, 3.12.30, x86_64

reproduce step:
1. add serial device
2. select device type: unix socket
                 device parameters: path=/dev/ttyS0
                                                       mode=client mode(connect)
3. run the VM

phenomenon:
Error starting domain: internal error process exited while connecting to 
monitor: qemu-kvm: -chardev 
socket,id=charserial0,path=/dev/ttyS0,server,nowait: socket bind failed: 
Address already in use
