show up in the guest, or the host? (I'd assume and hope the guest).

Does this happen only with LVM volumes?

For LVM, does it help if you create a temporary readonly snapshot of the volume you want to copy, use qemu-img on the snapshot, and then delete the snapshot? Does that allow the VM to continue running with the original volume with no errors?
