I may understand what happen.

Could you check 'tree -d /cgroup' where running your domain
and could you find that a directory named your domain
has another directory named some numeric number?

If so, could you try cgroup without ns subsystem like
mount -t cgroup -o cpu,cpuacct,cpuset,memory,devices cgroup /cgroup
or something.

I guess running lxc with ns subsystem of cgroup has still problems.
