----------
One more thing which popped into my mind, after you mentioned multiple SSIDs:

For the client devices having this issue, are more than one SSID entered in the network manager of those devices? Could it be that the issue occurs after a client device roams from one SSID to another?

There are some known issues involving roaming devices and snooping switches inside the Linux IPv6 code. See the patch I just submitted to the Linux netdev mailinglist for details: https://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/723428/

(However these issues should(tm) be temporary, things should recover with the next MLD query and you mentioned it does not recover even after a couple of minutes. Nevertheless, we should probably check whether your issue somehow involves roaming.)
