Sorry for the frustration. It is certainly not unreasonable to expect 14.04 to be working.
br0 is only brought up on first boot, so rebooting would not have triggered that part of cloud-config again.
I believe we are looking at back-porting Juju 1.20.2 (the next stable release) into 14.04. There are some issues relating to Mongo replica sets in Juju 1.20.1 that we're working on, but it should be stable enough to try out. Would you please see if 1.20.1 makes any difference for you?
