I assumed you are using Linux tree OVS kernel module

Thanks for confirming
We don't know your full topology, but if you want to send packets following
a path that goes thru an OVS userspace datapath then
that patch would be applicable.
Did you apply the patch to ALL userspace dataspath instances that could be
in you packet path ?
What is the path followed in the problem case ?

You could check the OVS tree kernel module.
