Yes, I have seen those "BUG: soft lockup - CPU#0 stuck for 11s!" hangs a
couple of times, too.

Same on the machine I had problems with. So, this might indeed be a
problematic combination - or simply pure chance.

I have neither found the root of the problem nor a solution. But
replacing the domU's Ubuntu kernel by a self-compiled recent vanilla
kernel (2.6.28.8) with domU support is a workaround that lets the domU
run stable since 54 days now - previously one week was the most I could
get for uptime.
