Virt-manager and guest window stop reacting after some time-out

[Leon Pollak]

Hello, all.
I am not sure if the Fedora update, which is done each 3-5 days, is the
cause but the problem returned in its full volume.
Now, again, after some 10 minutes of unusage, all virt manager windows are
stuck.
No need to say that /etc/sysconfig/virtnetworkd with the line
VIRTNETWORKD_ARGS=
remains in its place...
Is there something I can do about this?
Thanks!
