VRRP standard explicitly says the software should do wierd things for
the "master" IP address which dont apply to backup, so you may be
stumbling over this.
the issue was about the owner MAC address and ping responses (only a
master will reply, which was something about knowing when backup is
active) - sounds like the opposite of what you are getting.
it was much easier for diags if each physical interface has its own
address and the VRRP floating address(es) are separate (and your NMS
may prefer this as well for consistent polling).
1 way around this on other systems (Bay / Nortel routers) was to use 2
different backup priorities and not configure a master at all.

note from someone setting it up, who seems to have had similar issues.
