Wrong. You should not be directly editing anything under /etc/libvirt, but instead should be using 'virsh edit rmdev2' to make those changes. It may be because you went behind libvirt's back that your edits were not recognized, and that you had to end up undefining and re-creating a new guest before you got this to work the way you wanted.

# brctl show
bridge name     bridge id               STP enabled     interfaces
br1             8000.e41f13ba6e1a       no              eth1
virbr0          8000.5254003a3124       yes             virbr0-nic

# virsh -c qemu:///system start rmdev2
error: Failed to start domain rmdev2
error: Failed to add tap interface to bridge 'br0': No such device

there *nothing* 'br0' in /etc in the system (I grepped it),
why is looking for br0 instead of br1 ?

One other thing to check, although I'm not sure it matters in your case (since you said that creating a new domain worked): when modifying network information, you may also need to modify libvirt's notion of the network, via such commands as 'virsh net-list' and 'virsh net-edit'.
