I can confirm the test steps mentioned above. In an unchanged scenario a
formerly failing-to-connect case got working when replacing the qemu (on
Focal) in use with a patched one.
Adding an SRU Template for Focal to the bug description ...

Title:
QEMU VNC websocket proxy requires non-standard 'binary' subprotocol
Status in QEMU:
Fix Released
Status in qemu package in Ubuntu:
Fix Released
Status in qemu source package in Focal:
Confirmed
Bug description:
When running a machine using "-vnc" and the "websocket" option QEMU
seems to require the subprotocol called 'binary'. This subprotocol
does not exist in the WebSocket specification. In fact it has never
existed in the spec, in one of the very early drafts of WebSockets it
was briefly mentioned but it never made it to a final version.
When the WebSocket server requires a non-standard subprotocol any
WebSocket client that works correctly won't be able to connect.
One example of such a client is noVNC, it tells the server that it
doesn't want to use any subprotocol. QEMU's WebSocket proxy doesn't
let noVNC connect. If noVNC is modified to ask for 'binary' it will
work, this is, however, incorrect behavior.
Looking at the code in "io/channel-websock.c" it seems it's quite
hard-coded to binary:
Look at line 58 and 433 here:
https://git.qemu.org/?p=qemu.git;a=blob;f=io/channel-websock.c
This code has to be made more dynamic, and shouldn't require binary.
