Hi,
I come by trying to close or revive bugs that were dormant for too long.

As Rene already quotes - upstream seems to have dropped the ball.
Together with Andreas they have found that a SIGHUB will make it rescan the interfaces which makes it work. But the follow on that upstream intended "If that works, it should be possible to add a netlink listener that triggers the scan whenever interfaces come and go." didn't seem to happen.

FYI - for some remaining hope I also Pinged the upstream case.

P.S. In addition this is another aspect of the general (and never ending) online ordering context, tagging it as that.
