Hello!
I have two issues with spice in my Proxmox, im not sure if those are known issues or if there is even a possible remediation but ill give it a go:

1. When i attempt to to use the windows machine on spice after not using the machien for a long time (Several hours) i get the "connecting to graphics sever machine" indefinitely, the way i solve it is by opening an additional noVNC console for that machine, and then the spice console displays the machine but it cant be used, i have to close it and re-open it for it to work. i have to find some sort of a a solution to that, any ideas?
2. after setting up a machines hardware(display) to run on Spice, when i click "console" the default is still noVNC, is it possible to change the default for specific machines to SPICE?

thank you very much!

your windows is in standby and the spice session cannot wake-up.
=>configure your windows power settings to always on. (the novnc can wake-up!).

2. after setting up a machines hardware(display) to run on Spice, when i click "console" the default is still noVNC, is it possible to change the default for specific machines to SPICE?

no, this is not possible (only a global default can be set).
