vmac problem on centos 6.5

Hello!

Yesterday I tried to switch my two linux routers to use vmac.

Both of them runs centos 6.5 , master is x86-64 and backup is x86.

I compiled and installed keepalived 1.2.13, did some preparations like

#for vrrp mac_vlan
net.ipv4.conf.all.arp_ignore = 1
net.ipv4.conf.all.arp_announce = 1
net.ipv4.conf.all.arp_filter = 0
net.ipv4.conf.eth1.arp_filter = 1


Here is config from one master:

global_defs {
   router_id u304-vpn
}

vrrp_instance VI_1 {
    state MASTER
    interface eth1
    virtual_router_id 1
    use_vmac
    priority 240
    advert_int 1
    authentication {
        auth_type PASS
        auth_pass pass
    }
    virtual_ipaddress {
        192.168.26.1/24
    }
    notify_master "/usr/local/bin/vmac_tweak.sh"
}


and of slave


global_defs {
   router_id u304-vpn
}

vrrp_instance VI_1 {
    state MASTER
    interface eth1
    virtual_router_id 1
    use_vmac
    priority 240
    advert_int 1
    authentication {
        auth_type PASS
        auth_pass pass
    }
    virtual_ipaddress {
        192.168.26.1/24
    }
    notify_master "/usr/local/bin/vmac_tweak.sh"
}


vrrp address is 192.168.26.1
master is 192.168.26.3
backup is 192.168.26.2

And I successefully use this config without vmac.

So, after keepalived restart I got vrrp.1 interface on both servers,
and mac address of 192.168.26.1 on clients ( tested another linux server 
and cisco catalyst) is address of this vrrp.1.
But not for long, after several minutes it becomes mac address of backup 
server physical interface, I tried this 3 times and always get the same 
result.

Could you tell me what can be wrong?

Thank you!
