I'm curious why you might be seeing different. Could you share more
details of your setup please?

So I did some more digging and realized I forgot to mention that I was doing these builds using Packer (although an older version 1.1.3, current is 1.7.4). I realized there might have been some bug fixes in Packer and started testing using the newer version of Packer. After a few adjustments (namely, removing disk_interface and setting cdrom_interface to virtio-scsi in the template) this finally worked as expected.

So now I have an even bigger reason to upgrade our templates :-)

Feel free to close this bug as "not a bug" or whatever makes sense. Sorry for the noise!

Thanks-
