I'm not sure if I am following you correctly, but the WAN CARP IP has 
to be the same on both routers.  So router1 has a WAN of a.a.a.a and CARP of 
a.a.a.b, and router2 has a WAN of a.a.a.c and CARP of a.a.a.b.  Same thing with 
the LAN IPs.

Thanks for your reply, Jon :)

Yes, I'm using CARP addresses from each WAN for outbound NAT:
- WLAN1 CARP, for WLAN1
- WLAN2 CARP, for WLAN2

In addition, when the *new* master unit routes the established
traffic, it continues doing the previous NAT according to the state
synchronised from the previous master. So it continues doing outbound
NAT with the WLAN2 CARP address, but trying to route through WLAN1.
This proves that the new master unit has the synchronised states, but
it try to route the established connections according to routing table
and not to firewall rules.
