Most cisco routers take up to ~9 minutes to re-arp these changes. Static
MACS must be used.
You could tri arping'ing the gateway just specifying the address and
interface (i.e. eth0:1) or pass a -U. This should trick the router into
doing it.
The best way, use static macs when bringing up the vifs within the
dom-u. Remember, you can have only 3 physical eth devices within a
guest, as far as I know this limitation has not yet increased.
So, its much easier to bring them up as vifs from within the dom-u
itself, just specify macs for each one.

It is. apring is being called each time its brought to an up state to
make sure the IP does not already exist on the network. You either have
to wait 10 minutes, send traffic from it (i.e. ping -I eth0:1 -c1 -w5

That's not going to make much of a difference. I often just specify
bridge, vifname and mac and handle the rest inside of the guest.

Just flushing the router's arp hehehe :)
