You mention Windows clients at the beginning of your email, have you
tried Linux clients too?
It should be possible to get more detailed logs of what's happening with
virt-viewer on Windows, but I forgot how this is done :( maybe run it
with --verbose --debug.
On your windows client, have you tried a direct connection to a VM over
your VPN using remote-viewer.exe spice://host_ip:spice_port ?
Hopefully, experimenting with these suggestions will give more hints in
order to move forward :)
