Guest OS types that will get Virtio disks include:

Ubuntu
Fedora
CentOS
RedHat 6
Debian
Other PV

And unfortunately, they also get virtio nics since they both run the OS
through the same isPVEnabled() method to decide between hardware.

This random "details" parameter is kind of interesting. I'll have to see if
it gets passed along with StartCommand. I really dislike the trend of using
a 'details' dumping ground for undocumented tweaks, but if it's already
something that VMware is using then we could parse the details for the same
info, if it's being passed along.

What version of cloudstack are you using? And what OS is the guest agent
running on?
