The problem was always finding the Pseduo-TTY/PID for the monitor after restart, and associating the live config with it. We've "solved" that in LXC driver by savingt the live XML & PID to /var/run/libvirt/lxc/. It basically needs the same approach to be applied to the QEMU daemons. In addition the DNSmasq deamon needs adapting for simiarl reasons.
