command used to start VM:
virsh start vhost0088

std out:

error: Failed to start domain vhost0088
error: internal error unable to start guest: char device redirected to /dev/pts/10.

Description:

Actually I have automated the provisioning and when it fails to start the vm it removes the vm.img and vm.xml file. So there's no chance of trying a reboot again.
Grepping logs is also not easy as the error is too intermittent.
