I guess it's better to communicating this over the list, in case someone 
runs in the same problem :)

What i did in terms of network changes was the following script. It's an 
old one i used when i didn't work with virsh, because i followed an old 
tutorial for kvm-qemu on CentOS 5.
It basically creates a new bridge called bg0, creates a tap0 interface, 
and connects eth0 and tap0 to the bridge.
(comments ommited)

  22 chown root:kvm /dev/net/tun
  23 chmod 0660 /dev/net/tun
  24
  25 service libvirtd stop
  26 service httpd stop
  27 service vsftpd stop
  28 service named stop
  32 brctl addbr br0
  35 ifconfig eth0 0.0.0.0
  38 brctl addif br0 eth0
  41 ifconfig br0 192.168.2.253 netmask 255.255.255.0 up
  44 route add -net 192.168.2.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 br0
  47 route add default gw 192.168.2.1 br0
  50 tunctl -u root -g kvm -t tap0
  58 ifconfig tap0 up


so i ran this script and tried to use the tap0 the xml from the vm.
it didn't work (yeah i am not that smart in terms of bridges, i know i 
am not getting it 100 percent ;) )
but i didn't touch virbr0 at all.
it even showed up as usual when i did a "brctl show all"
and either eth0 or tap0 were connected in any way with it.

after the restart virbr0 was gone.

If you want to have more logs etc just ask away.
