Export the display over D-Bus. By default, it will use a private bus,
except when ``p2p`` or ``address`` are specified.
::
<graphics type='dbus'/>
``p2p`` (accepts ``on`` or ``off``) enables peer-to-peer connections,
established through virDomainOpenGraphics() APIs.
``address`` (accepts a `D-Bus address
<https://dbus.freedesktop.org/doc/dbus-specification.html#addresses>`_),
will connect to the specified bus address.
This element accepts a ``<gl/>`` sub-element with an optional attribute
``rendernode`` which can be used to specify an absolute path to a host's
DRI device to be used for OpenGL rendering.
Copy & Paste functionality is provided thanks to the QEMU clipboard
manager and the SPICE vdagent protocol. See ``qemu-vdagent`` for more
details.
D-Bus can export an audio backend using the ``<audio>`` sub-element:
::
<graphics type='dbus' ...>
<audio id='1'>
</graphics>
Where ``1`` is an id of the `audio device <#elementsAudio>`__.
Graphics device uses a ``<listen>`` to set up where the device should listen for
clients. It has a mandatory attribute ``type`` which specifies the listen type.

The 'dbus' audio backend does not connect to any host audio framework. It
exports a D-Bus interface when associated with a D-Bus display.
