Description of Issue/Question

Setup

$ cat *.tf
resource "libvirt_pool" "base" {
	name = "base"
	type = "dir"
	path = "/var/lib/libvirt/images"
}

resource "libvirt_volume" "alpine_iso" {
	name = "alpine_disk.qcow2"
	pool = libvirt_pool.base.name
	source = "https://dl-cdn.alpinelinux.org/alpine/v3.20/releases/x86_64/alpine-virt-3.20.3-x86_64.iso"
}
provider "libvirt" {
	uri = "qemu:///system"
}
terraform {
	required_providers {
		libvirt = {
			source = "dmacvicar/libvirt"
		}
	}
}

Steps to Reproduce Issue

$ terraform apply

Terraform used the selected providers to generate the following execution plan. Resource actions are indicated with the following symbols:
  + create

Terraform will perform the following actions:

  # libvirt_pool.base will be created
  + resource "libvirt_pool" "base" {
      + allocation = (known after apply)
      + available  = (known after apply)
      + capacity   = (known after apply)
      + id         = (known after apply)
      + name       = "base"
      + path       = "/var/lib/libvirt/images"
      + type       = "dir"
    }

  # libvirt_volume.alpine_iso will be created
  + resource "libvirt_volume" "alpine_iso" {
      + format = (known after apply)
      + id     = (known after apply)
      + name   = "alpine_disk.qcow2"
      + pool   = "base"
      + size   = (known after apply)
      + source = "https://dl-cdn.alpinelinux.org/alpine/v3.20/releases/x86_64/alpine-virt-3.20.3-x86_64.iso"
    }

Plan: 2 to add, 0 to change, 0 to destroy.

Do you want to perform these actions?
  Terraform will perform the actions described above.
  Only 'yes' will be accepted to approve.

  Enter a value: yes

libvirt_pool.base: Creating...

There are already .qcow2 files in the specified path for the storage pool:

$ ls /var/lib/libvirt/images
alpine_x86_64.qcow2  archlinux.qcow2  freebsd-x86.qcow2

But the default pool has a different target path:

# pool-dumpxml default 
<pool type='dir'>
  <name>default</name>
  <uuid>c70b93dc-5b04-4958-83da-5654bd12a1da</uuid>
  <capacity unit='bytes'>125425360896</capacity>
  <allocation unit='bytes'>63068778496</allocation>
  <available unit='bytes'>62356582400</available>
  <source>
  </source>
  <target>
    <path>/home/myuser/.local/share/libvirt/images</path>
    <permissions>
      <mode>0711</mode>
      <owner>1000</owner>
      <group>998</group>
    </permissions>
  </target>
</pool>

So I don't understand the conflict here.
All other pools also do not have the specified path.

Do you have SELinux or Apparmor/Firewall enabled? Some special configuration?

Hi, I think there might be confusion about system and user libvirt sessions. It looks like from Terraform you are using system one but when you show XML for default storage pool, it looks like it might be user one.
