This is a known issue and there are several threads about it: do not use ide0 and ide1 (or ide2 and ide3) together with q35. Use ide0 and ide2 instead, by removing IDE 1 and adding the optical drive as IDE 2.

For reference and future readers, this is fixed in qemu-server >= 8.0.7: https://git.proxmox.com/?p=qemu-server.git;a=commit;h=b155086bd8c408ca03673e9ae9339c32ef1f99fc
