Unfortunately, I’m unable to get either of the laptops to switch

That being said, I managed to take a pcap dump on¹ the 7330 (client).
What I see there:
1. c→s TC=00 tcp syn/ecn/cwr
2. c←s TC=00 tcp syn/ack/ecn
3. c→s TC=00 tcp ack
4. c→s TC=02 ssh version+crlf
5. c←s TC=00 tcp ack, no payload
and a few seconds later c→s fin/ack, c←s fin/ack, when I pressed ^C.
When I do a pcap dump on the 7430 (server), I see lots more, with TC=B8.
So it seems like certain network devices default to blocking packets
with the new default traffic class octet, which I think you’ll want
to take upstream.
I think it would work best if you could take this upstream yourself.
Since I have no access to your hardware, when upstream ask for extra
debugging information, I'd end up just acting as a glorified relay,
which I'm not very good at.
Upstream told me that they've had a total of two reports of problems
with the new IPQoS settings, so I expect they'd be interested in
additional reports of regressions.
I've CCed one of the main authors of these changes in case they can spot
anything that would come down to a bad backport on my part; Job, see
https://bugs.debian.org/1136459 for context. Thorsten, if you could try
the version currently in testing (or perhaps also the version in
unstable), that would help to exclude problems caused by possible bad
backports.
Thanks,
