My first suggestion would be "use ubuntu host, it should just work" :)

Having said that, more details like "what lxc-related packages and versions
installed" would help, as well as "what you see when you run the container
in the foreground with 'lxc-start -F'"

Also, why did you use ubuntu cloud template? The download template (where
you can choose various distros and versions) should be more suitable for
most purposes.

FWIW, I've run ubuntu trusty containers (using download template) on
centos6 host (yes, the ancient one, with 2.6.32 kernel)
with lxc-2.0.0.beta2 (./configure;make rpm). There's some manual
modifications required, and it's obviously not as secure as on ubuntu host
(e.g. no apparmor on c6), but at least it works and starts quickly.
