I have been seeing an issue where my Windows VM appears to hang during
boot - I've been working around it by rebooting and running the VM
without anything else started. I haven't had time to investigate, but
checked today based on this thread and can confirm that I am seeing
the same thing. And it isn't just Firefox - before my VM would start
running normally I had to shut everything down including the duplicati
service (used for backups).
I can confirm that I no longer see the issue with kernel 6.1.10-100.fc36.x86_64.
