I know this answer comes pretty late, but I experienced a similar issue today. LXC host runs Ubuntu 18.04, container runs Ubuntu 18.04, too. I noticed that my container doesn’t have an IP address showing up in lxc-ls -f, even though it is correctly configured in the container’s config file.

It turned out to be a problem of netplan. Even though netplan inside the container was configured to not do anything and not use dhcp, this somehow disabled the network interface from getting the IP address.

Once I removed netplan.io in the container, the LXC container got its ip address from the container config and all was fine again.
