There may be reasons why you're taking the approach you're taking, but my 
initial recommendation would be to keep a physical interface out of OVS and use 
it for communications with the ODL controller. For example, let's say that eth1 
is on the same network as the ODL controller---don't add eth1 to OVS and don't 
configure any OVS interfaces on the same network as eth1. Then see if OVS is 
able to communicate with the ODL controller.
