I guess it's the same issue as with setting a different IP from what
dnsmasq provided. You can try ebtables -F; ebtables -t nat -F to flush
those anti spoofing rules.

Confirm that it works with Essex release.
If you don't specify  use_single_default_gateway=true your default route
will be jumping from one interface to another. If you both subnets are
covered by --fixed_network, it's fine even without setting
the use_single_default_gateway.
