What am I doing wrong? > It seems to me that your version of virt-manager doesn't know about spice channel yet, so I suggest you to add it to libvirt configuration via CLI - run 'virsh edit $YOUR_VM_NAME' and add spicevmc channel to devices list as described here: http://libvirt.org/formatdomain.html#elementCharChannel
Once you add it, you should see the channel in virt-manager, too.
