I believe Valve have already acknowledged it as an issue in the past.
It happens when the server loses connection to Steam, which causes it
to switch transport protocols - and the UDP one doesn't respect the
bind address.
Other than block the problematic one, forcing it to toggle back to the
other, there isn't really anything you can do.
