The only thing that udev does in this context is to rename network
interfaces, in /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules (that's
autogenerated on install). So if you change the MACs you probably need
to delete/disable the file, or your network interfaces will come back
with a different name. With NetworkManager that won't matter, but if you
use ifupdown, i. e. /etc/network/interfaces then the name mismatch will
break things.
Please attach the output of "dmesg" after a complete "boot, change MAC,
replug" cycle, and the ouptut of "ip a" before and after changing the
MAC. Please also try with moving /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-
net.rules aside (if you only have one ethernet device it's not necessary
anyway).
