I added libvirt-users@redhat.com back to the Cc for this response.
Please don't remove the list address when responding to postings on a
mailing list. A message to the list is *much* more likely to reach
someone who knows the answer than is a private message to a single person.

AppArmor is prohibiting it for some reason. I don't run debian or
ubuntu, so I don't have any idea how AppArmor works. Possibly someone
else on the list knows (or maybe you could search for help on AppArmor
somewhere).

libvrt does not have permissions to execute ovs-vsctl. How can I get
this issue sorted out?

libvirt is creating a tap device, then running ovs-vsctl to attempt to
attach it to the configured switch. To see what command is run, and
what
error is output, add this to your /etc/libvirt/libvirt.d:
log_filters="1:util.command 1:util.netdevopenvswitch"
log_outputs="1:syslog:libvirtd.service"
and restart the libvirt service, then attempt to start your guest while
watching the system logs. You will see an ovs-vsctl command run by
virCommandRunAsync. That command and its output should give you a clue
to what is missing from the locally-built openvswitch vs the official
package installed with apt-get.
