I haven't tried specifically with the "cloud" images, but I've done
something very similar to what it seems like you're doing (minus the
Ansible portion, at least so far) with the standard installation
DVD/USB images. Getting guest network connectivity with KVM is
slightly convoluted, but this blog post of mine might perhaps help you
get unstuck:

I was running Debian 11 when I wrote it but am fairly certain I didn't
need to make any adjustments when upgrading to Debian 12.

I hope that this will help you get unstuck.
