It's not a bug, it's a feature :)

This allows you to give higher priority to interactive ssh connections
(as compared to non-interactive ones, like scp). If you don't want to
make that distinction (and queue every ssh packet into ext_def), don't
specify a priority queue on those pass rules.

If you specify both queues in the pass rule, packets with TOS lowdelay
and empty TCP ACKs should go into the second queue, everything else into
the first.
