As you can see, the md5sum of the file changes when I set the value
of the secret to the same.
That is really bizarre. Can you look at what is actually stored
in the .base64 file each time ? And what 'secret-get-value'
replies with ?
I haven't been able to look into this any further, however: I just
downloaded 0.9.13 from the libvirt website and installed it on a totally
different host which is also running Ubuntu 12.04
I wanted to start a virtual machine with RBD storage and that failed,
the secret was corrupted...
The symptoms on this machine are exactly the same, the secret file is
just 2 bytes big.
root@amd:~# ls -al /etc/libvirt/secrets/*.base64
-rw------- 1 root root 2 Jul 3 15:02
/etc/libvirt/secrets/69f9540e-f0ce-4184-8254-9b22efade5f2.base64

This is the correct behaviour tht I see myself too.
I verified that stack01 isn't out of disk space or out of inodes,
those are in the acceptable values range.
Any suggestions?
I think you'll probably need to add some more VIR_DEBUG lines
to secret_driver.c to see where in the process it is going
wrong. Or perhaps strace libvirtd to see what it thinks it
is writing out & whether any errors appear.
I haven't added any VIR_DEBUG lines yet, but stracing the libvirtd
process doesn't show any fopen() nor fwrites() to any *.base64 files.
