Indeed - this is also the way I have libvirt configured, and my guests
are getting IPv6 addresses automatically from radvd running elsewhere
on my LAN.
For reference, here is how I configure the network:
# cat /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-br0
DEVICE=br0
TYPE=Bridge
BOOTPROTO=dhcp
ONBOOT=yes
DELAY=0
NM_CONTROLLED=no
and then I just connect each guest directly to the bridge:
<interface type='bridge'>
<mac address='52:54:00:12:ab:a9'/>
<source bridge='br0'/>
<model type='virtio'/>
</interface>
