qemu's: (fails to start)

    <interface type='network'>
      <mac address='52:54:00:20:e1:47'/>
      <source network='ovs-br0' portgroup='vlan-54'/>
      <model type='virtio'/>
      <address type='pci' domain='0x0000' bus='0x00' slot='0x09'
function='0x0'/>
    </interface>

LXC's: (starts)

    <interface type='network'>
      <mac address='52:54:00:53:ac:e5'/>
      <source network='ovs-br0' portgroup='vlan-55'/>
      <model type='virtio'/>
    </interface>

This is Openvswitch' bridge thus does not exits as "iface" per say, but
this is how it should be used in libvirt, I think, no? LXC works okey.
How is it different for Qemu?

thanks, L
