Ubuntu VM VNC/Passthrough issue after Unraid restart.

I've set up a Ubuntu Desktop 22.04 as a VM.

I can go through the installation process just fine, get everything set up, then restart the VM with a RTX 3080 set as a passthrough, install drivers etc. and everything works well.

That is, until I decide to restart the Unraid server. After that if I try to start up the Ubuntu VM there is no video signal at all. There is nothing displayed from my GPU. If I switch the graphics card back to VNC i get "Guest has not initialized the display (yet)." message. Strangely I can get the VNC to show something if i mount the installation iso back again, then it opens up directly in a Ubuntu Installation (instead of showing the boot menu first like it did on a first install).

The only option I know of to get it working again is to set up the VM from scratch.

The Windows 11 VM with the same devices passthrough that I have set up as well works just fine.

VM Config (as VNC)
