No idea what IE 8 + are doing, but -
The Gecko error console flags this:

The CSS validator returns this
Parse Error [background: blue} .test1]
Basically, in both cases you have an invalid selector
p [background: blue} .test1
and everything is ignored until the 1st instance of 'green}'
The 1st valid selector after p{} is .test2
