Perhaps git-bisect(1) can help you track down the change that introduced
this between 0.15 and 1.0.

It sounds like this is not the issue, but are you sure the bridge has
forwarding delay set to 0 or Spanning Tree Protocol disabled?  With STP
enabled no traffic will be forwarded by the bridge for a configured
timeout, and depending on the timing of your VM bootup you could see
weird things.  You can check with brctl showstp br0.
