I'm not sure what's going on here.  systemd kind of starts it, but then apparently either systemd shuts it down or the service decides it has nothing to do and quits.

I notice it’s exactly 2 minutes.  If you notice the process running, it says it runs with “--timeout 120”.  I wonder if this is the similar to the virtnetworkd bug we saw last year?

Try disabling the timeout with:
echo LIBVIRTD_ARGS= > /etc/sysconfig/libvirtd && systemctl restart libvirtd
