This is just like it should be. When you ping dom0 packets obviously should not 
go out.

    root@xen411dom0:/ftp/HVM# tcpdump  -i eth0 'icmp[icmptype] = icmp-echo and
    icmp[icmptype] != icmp-echoreply'
    tcpdump: verbose output suppressed, use -v or -vv for full protocol decode
    listening on eth0, link-type EN10MB (Ethernet), capture size 65535 bytes

And here on the bridge you see traffic, so that's ok.


    Pings from *centos-hvm* to default gateway *no ip-traffic on peth0*

So here's your problem. Your bridge in dom0 is NOT forwarding the packets out 
to peth0..


    root@xen411dom0:/ftp/HVM# tcpdump  -i eth0 'icmp[icmptype] = icmp-echo and
    icmp[icmptype] != icmp-echoreply'
    tcpdump: verbose output suppressed, use -v or -vv for full protocol decode
    listening on eth0, link-type EN10MB (Ethernet), capture size 65535 bytes
    19:54:00.770442 IP 192.168.1.180>  192.168.1.1: ICMP echo request, id 518,
    seq 23, length 64
    19:54:01.770958 IP 192.168.1.180>  192.168.1.1: ICMP echo request, id 518,
    seq 24, length 64
So where are these packets going to ? They're not getting out of dom0..

Do you have a firewall rule in dom0 that drops them?

Try these:
- In the HVM guest: run "arp -an" and check what MAC address you see for the 
gateway-IP.
- In dom0: run "brctl showmacs eth0" and verify which port has the MAC of the 
gateway.
[root@centoshvm ~]# arp -an
