I think that the problem is related to snapshots.
I saw that when working with a VM pool, defining some pre-started VMs, then when shutting
down a VM then all the devices are created again, which leads to these duplications.
Still need to investigate/debug it, on a clean environment, but looks like it is the
issue.

I would also like to add that maybe its worth to get the XML of the
configuration of the snapshot.
This information is stored as "text" under the vm_configuration column
of "snapshots" table.
You will always have an "active" snapshot - this is not the snapshot
you're interested at, simply query the snapshots table according to the
snapshot description, and you will have the OVF that describes the VM
when the snapshot was created.
I wonder if the OVF is correctly kept at the snapshot (just suggesting
another point of investigation)
