This is an actual problem. Can somebody from the Proxmox developers say
whether it can be addressed? How is the browser/OS supposed to know which
application to use to open the file? Would you consider adding a .vv
extension to it?

It takes a while for a SPICE connection to be established over a WAN link.
Sometimes you have to wait a good 10 - 20 seconds for anything to actually
happen.

To be absolutely sure, you'd have to obtain a logcat from your phone. If
your phone is rooted, you can do so with:

If your phone is not rooted, I can provide you with instructions for how to
get a locat with the android SDK (adb) if you're willing to help.

Thanks!
