What version of the engine are you using exactly? This is a known bug.
The "cloud_init" element is ignored. See here for details:

  Cloud-Init payload not passed into VM via python SDK
  https://bugzilla.redhat.com/1305904

That will be fixed in version 3.6.5. If you have a version 3.6.2 or
newer then you can use the workaround described there, using the
"initailization" element directly.
