Do you have qemu w/ qemu-guest-agent running on Debian?

Curious if anyone has such a configuration working?
I'm running qemu as a non-root/non-admin user. So far, I can install
Debian 12, however when testing out the qemu-guest-agent I'm encountering
an issue. Not sure if most people are installing all of these tools with
root invocation and using virt-manager (I encountered issues installing
that as well). I was hoping to use socket_vmnet as follows to run qemu
non-root user, which seems to work for the install, except I would like to
get graphics and sound working right so I can enter fullscreen mode with
maximum resolution available to the host. I was hoping the guest-agent
would make that possible. Any guidance appreciated.
#install debian

-device virtio-gpu -cdrom ~/Downloads/debian-12.11.0-amd64-netinst.iso
-boot d -device virtio-gpu
# boot debian

$ sudo apt update && sudo apt install qemu-guest-agent
$ sudo systemctl enable qemu-guest-agent
$ sudo systemctl start qemu-guest-agent
