If libvirt-bin is started, then you have the bridge interface:
$ ifconfig virbr0
virbr0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:00:00:00:00:00
inet addr:192.168.122.1 Bcast:192.168.122.255 Mask:255.255.255.0

Stop it:
~$ sudo /etc/init.d/libvirt-bin stop
* Stopping libvirt management daemon libvirtd [
OK ]
Problem, its still up:
$ ifconfig virbr0
virbr0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:00:00:00:00:00
inet addr:192.168.122.1 Bcast:192.168.122.255 Mask:255.255.255.0

TX packets:31 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0
collisions:0 txqueuelen:0
RX bytes:0 (0.0 b) TX bytes:5135 (5.0 KB)
Try and start it:
$ sudo /etc/init.d/libvirt-bin start
* Starting libvirt management daemon
libvirtd libvir: QEMU error : cannot create
bridge 'virbr0' : File exists
Failed to autostart network 'default': cannot create bridge 'virbr0' : File

I am running the following packages and versions:

Library to emulate keyboard keypresses.
ii virt-manager 0.5.2-3ubuntu0ppa2

Not sure if this helps. I have two laptops with the same configuration. I.e.
I started with the same version from the ppa repo. They have recently been
upgraded. They never used to have the bridge problem before the package
upgrades. Something must have changed. I must say that you only notice the
brigde issue if you are restarting the service at the command line. When its
all working and you boot up, you dont notice it.
