That's how I discover the problem ;-) Everything was running fine until ... I had to reboot the server! VMs are started automatically but libvirtd will not start. In your doggy workaround ;-) libvirtd will NOT start because of the missing listen_addr. That's why I was thinking that libvirt start networks *before* it take care of listen_addr or perhaps listen_addr shouldn't cancel the start of libvirt (delay it) until network is up and then check if listen_addr is in error or not.
