I'm inexperienced with pktgen so I haven't seen this problem before myself.
When you receive the "connection refused" error from OVS are both the 
ovsdb-server and ovs-vswitchd processes still running or has anything crashed 
at this point? If there has been a crash can you please post the gdb trace of 
the ovs-vswitchd process. Thanks.
