OK, answering myself.

I found the problem, at least in my system. Obviously there is
something wrong with some network cards and multicast in Ubuntu / Linux.

I read about it in the german Ubuntu Wiki: 
http://wiki.ubuntuusers.de/Avahi#Avahi-im-Netzwerk

The solution is a simple

sudo ifconfig eth0 allmulti

To make it restart save add the following in the file /etc/network/
interfaces in the section for the relevant NIC (take care of
indentation):
post-up infconfig eth0 allmulti

Hope that helps


That's interesting!
sudo ifconfig eth0 allmulti
does so far seem to be working.

Can you show me the way you added that to the interfaces file? I'm having trouble with the syntax. I've tried several variations. I suppose I could put it in post-up.d/ but thought the interfaces file would be better....
