freebsd stable - May 2019 - carp can't delete address

I?ve just set up carp (for the first time) and it seems the virtual address is
not being removed on the backup host:

May 23 20:55:09 xxx kernel: carp: 1 at igb0: INIT -> BACKUP (initialization
complete)
May 23 20:55:12 xxx kernel: carp: 1 at igb0: BACKUP -> MASTER (master timed
out)
May 23 20:56:33 xxx kernel: carp: 1 at igb0: MASTER -> BACKUP (more frequent
advertisement received)
May 23 20:56:33 xxx kernel: igb0: deletion failed: 3

ifconfig shows the address as active:
# ifconfig igb0
igb0: flags=8943<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,PROMISC,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> metric 0
mtu 1500
	options=e527bb<RXCSUM,TXCSUM,VLAN_MTU,VLAN_HWTAGGING,JUMBO_MTU,VLAN_HWCSUM,TSO4,TSO6,LRO,WOL_MAGIC,VLAN_HWFILTER,VLAN_HWTSO,RXCSUM_IPV6,TXCSUM_IPV6>
	ether ac:1f:6b:12:34:56
	inet 212.12.xxx.xxx/24 broadcast 212.12.xxx.xxx 
	inet 212.12.xxx.yyy/32 broadcast 212.12.xxx.yyy vhid 1 
	inet6 fe80::ae1f:6bff:...%igb0/64 scopeid 0x1 
	carp: BACKUP vhid 1 advbase 1 advskew 200
	media: Ethernet autoselect (1000baseT <full-duplex>)
	status: active
	nd6 options=21<PERFORMNUD,AUTO_LINKLOCAL>

Is there a configuration I can/need to adjust?

It is normal for the common address to be present in all participating 
nodes. Your node above moved to the backup state since another node 
advertise the same (encrypted) vhid at a quicker pace.
