Thanks for filing this bug. I believe htis is because libvirt is being started in a non-root cgroup. Will try to get it fixed asap.

This bug was fixed in the package libvirt - 1.2.12-0ubuntu10

---------------
libvirt (1.2.12-0ubuntu10) vivid; urgency=medium

  * Fix previous patch to ignore any abstract unix domain sockets
  * Update the cgmanager patch so that container start and stop work under
    systemd. (LP: #1438730) In 15.10 we will drop the cgmanager patch(es).
