Mismatch Server/QXL drivers version seems to be an issue with Spice in general.

Since you are using the latest spice server 0.8.0-1, I would do 1 of 2 thing
a) Build your own QXL driver for 0.8.0-1. 
Leon and I updated here

Or 
b) Drop Spice server  back to 0.6.x
In my case, RHEL 6, I need to upgrade Spice Server from 0.4x to 0.6.x 
I will post the result once I have it tested.

Cheers
