After making some investigation the above request can be interpreted
this way:
ttl 1: Restricted to the local subnet, no router hops
0.0.0.0 (group address): for Host Membership Query

The query router election seems to be disregarded since another host in
my cluster having a numerical higher higher IP than another host also
sends host membership queries:
tcpdump -i vmbr20 -vv net 224.0.0.0/4
tcpdump: listening on vmbr20, link-type EN10MB (Ethernet), capture size
65535 bytes 18:25:20.093126 IP (tos 0xc0, ttl 1, id 0, offset 0, flags
[DF], proto IGMP (2), length 32, options (RA)) 0.0.0.0 >

Maybe this is caused by my setup where the switch drops all multicast
traffic except on the cluster administrative network in which case the
hosts cannot see each other.

@alexandre: Do you have multicast traffic enabled on all vlans on your
switch or is this reserved only on the cluster administrative network?
