I'm having a similar issue on Ubuntu 16.04 as host. When the guests are
on autostart and I boot the host, I can see an error message on the
guests' while booting: "Failed to start Raise network interfaces".

I've tried the methods above by adding a sleep to the init file.
however, the init file /etc/init/libvirt-bin.conf is not used anymore,
as echoing into a file does not work (seems like this init file is
deprecated, then why is it still there?). I've found another file,
/etc/init.d/libvirt-bin, which looks a lot newer, still it states the
year 2007 at the top of the file. This file is completely different and
I have no idea where to put the sleep command to test.

I'm not sure if this is the exact same issue, as I couldn't find any
similar issues on the internet. I've tried changing my bridge
configuration, without success. I have bridge_maxwait 0 on my bridge,
but it does not help. The host is able to use the internet right after
boot, so it seems the interface (bridge) is actually up and working. The
guests are working for a short period of time after boot. I've noticed
that the default route (IPv6) has a expire option on it and it's
counting downwards. When the route expires, the guest is no longer
reachable over the internet. When restarting the guests' interface, it's
working again without any problems.

So, this seems like an issue with the bridge not completely ready when
libvirt autostarts my guests. I have no idea why this happens and why it
takes longer for the bridge to fully initialize. I hope someone can help
me find out if this reported bug is related to my issue, or if I'm
having a different one.

Thanks in advance!
