I can't reproduce this on my lucid testbox.  Do you have networkmanager
or wicd installed?  Leaving wicd installed, for instance, caused my
box to frequently add a duplicate default route, which stopped my
network.

Can you gather the output, both when network is up, and while it is
paused, of:

        netstat -nr
        ifconfig -a
        brctl show
        ps -ef

To show precisely how I tried to reproduce, I did:
        apt-get remove network-manager
        apt-get remove wicd
        cat > /etc/network/interfaces << EOF
                auto lo
                iface lo inet loopback

                auto eth0
                iface eth0 inet manual

                auto br0
                iface br0 inet dhcp
                        bridge_ports eth0
                        bridge_stp off
                        bridge_fd 0
                        bridge_maxwait 0
        EOF
        (rebooted)

Then I cloned two working lucid server images
        qemu-img create -f qcow2 -b s1.img s2.img
        qemu-img create -f qcow2 -b s1.img s3.img
        MACADDR1=`ifconfig br0 | head -2 | tail -1 | awk -F: '{ print $2 '}| 
awk '{ print $1 '}`
        MACADDR2=`ifconfig br0 | head -2 | tail -1 | awk -F: '{ print $2 '}| 
awk '{ print $1 '}`

I started the first with kvm:
        kvm -drive file=s2.img,if=scsi,index=0,boot=on -m 1G -smp 2 -net 
nic,macaddr=$MACADDR1,model=virtio -net tap,ifname=tap1,script=no,downscript=no

and hooked up its interface on the host:
        ifconfig tap1 0.0.0.0 up
        brctl addif br0 tap1
then ran dhclient on the guest.

Then I started the second host the same way (with s3.img, tap2, and
$MACADDR2).

The whole time I left a terminal open with 'ping google.com', and
never saw any hiccoughs.

Please let me know if any of this gives you an idea of what else I should
do to reproduce.
