Public bug reported:

Description of problem:
I used in the past (approx. 6 months ago) an external DVD drive to install Ubuntu on my guests. When I try now, I can't use my DVD drive anymore.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
Ubuntu 12.04 LTS
Virt-manager 0.9.1
libvirt 0.9.8

How reproducible:
100%

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open virt-manager
2. Press "New"
3. Select "Local install"
4. Press "Forward"
5. Select "Use CDROM or DVD"
6. Press "Forward"

Actual results:
Error saying "Error setting install media location" (see attachment)

Expected results:
No error and getting to the next step.

Additional info:
This issue may be with libvirt itself I guess.
The DVD drive is connected to the server through an USB port.
The drive is correctly mounted.
The log file (libvirtd.log) is empty.
