Description

**Describe the issue**
Basically it seems you cannot pause a VM and start it again if you use Apple Virtualization instead of QEMU.
i'm using utm version 4.5.3 on a Macbook Air M3. I installed Ubuntu ARM as a guest using apple virtualization but i have noticed that if i pause the VM and close the window and try to start it again it fails and i get an error saying: " An error occurred while restoring the virtual machine. The virtual machine failed to restore with error “invalid argument”. Looks like this is a bug??

Pausing VMs using QEMU works fine though.

**Configuration**
* UTM Version: 4.5.3
* macOS Version: Sonoma 14.6.1
* Mac Chip (Intel, M1, ...): M3
* VM: Ubuntu 24.0.1 ARM64
