virt-manager vs. aarch64 *with graphics*?

Hi,
Does anyone have experience or a link on how to set up a graphical
aarch64 VM in virt-manager (emulated on x86_64)?
I've tried "New VM" -> "Architecture: aarch64",
(either the default machine type of "virt", or "raspi3").
Eventually, I picked "customize configuration before install",
and noticed that none of the machine types come with a configured
display! There's a "Console1" (which I don't want to use), and
no kebboard/mouse/video hardware.
I've tried adding "Graphics" (spice server), "Video" ("ramfb"),
and some combo of mouse/tablet/keyboard.
None of the Video options (besides "ramfb") seem to "light up" when I
power on the VM.
With "ramfb", I do see the tianocore/uefi boot screen, but once I
choose to start the F-36 workstation live image, the screen stops
refreshing altogether, and graphics mode never kicks in.
Googling around yields nothing, and I got crickets on #fedora as
well... :)
Thanks for any clue anyone may be able to impart!
Cheers,
--Gabriel
