No, we shouldn't be changing permissions here. It is intentional that these devices are owned by root for qemu:///system instances.

The real fix is to get to the position where virt-manager uses qemu:///session for 'local desktop' scenarios, and thus everything runs unprivileged, and the devices would have neccessary ownership already.
