OK, back to your question.

It doesn't make sense to do a mod_dl_dst as the final action.  A
packet modification only affects outputs that *follow* the
modification.

I suspect that your switch is going into "fail open" mode and
forwarding each packet as a regular switch would.  You should be able
to see that in the logs.  It would also be visible as an additional
high-priority rule in the output of "ovs-appctl bridge/dump-flows
dp0".
