Which emulated SCSI controller are you using?  Recent virtio-scsi gets
notified when LUNs are removed but you may have old guest drivers.

If you want to report this as a QEMU bug, please give QEMU commands, not
virt-manager commands.  If you cannot use QEMU directly, please work
with the virt-manager or libvirt community before filing a QEMU bug so
the necessary QEMU-level details can be provided by them.
