Hello. So I am running into an issue where my windows proxmox vms are completely freezing up randomly whenever I connect to them using the spice console on a windows device using remote viewer. I know that it only occurs when using the spice console because I do not encounter these freezes when I use rdp to establish a remote connection (as, again, these vms are all windows vms). I want to be in a position where I can better troubleshoot why this is happening. Are there logs on the host I should be looking at? Are there settings which I need to enable in order to increase the verbosity of the logs proxmox generates? Where are the logs located? These are all things I would like to know so I can better understand what is going on. I have looked in the event log for the windows vms when these freezes occur, but the last recorded event is usually 20 seconds behind when the force reboot occurs, and the logs leading up to the freeze don't appear to be a contributing factor, so any advice would be very much appreciated.
 
Since a few days I have the same problem. But my spice connection to a VM Desktop freezes all the time I connect to the desktop after a few seconds.
