Do you have defined fixed mac-Addresses? Otherwise your NIC gets
everytime a new hardware address and your udev especially the Suse ones
get confused.
vif = [ 'mac=xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx,bridge=xx' ]

Ok I see you have Suse.

if you have a fixed mac-address than you can specify an udev rule to
bind the address to an interface:
Add  in /etc/udev/rules.d/30-net_persistent_names.rules:

SUBSYSTEM=="net", ACTION=="add", SYSFS{address}=="00:60:dd:47:80:dc", 
IMPORT="/lib/udev/rename_netiface %k eth0"
