Unfortunately, from that it's hard to tell what's actually connected to
what. Curse libvirt for that.

A "normal" bridge setup wouldn't require any iptables rules to work, so
why don't you try disabling all your iptables rules on the host and
guest and setting the guest to use the same router as the host. See
what that gets you. Try pinging and tcpdumping at different points to
see where exactly things are failing.
