Hello, I had a similar problem on a system here. It had a custom .rules file to set fixed name of the interfaces (which was needed to solve the old Schroedinger interface game in ?2007?). The problem was gone after I renamed the custom file to be sorted after the 70-persistent-net.rules in the lexiconographic sort order.
I think, the main reason for the confusion is the manpage: It tells you long story about sort order, but it does not tell you which file is prefered in that order. The first or the last one?
