This is probably because when Linux kernel is configured as a router, 
it will ignore router advertisements radvd sends.  You can still see 
the router advertisement received with tcpdump.  I guess you've 
configured PC2 and PC3 as router.  There isn't a workaround for this.

What you can do is throw radvd away and manually configure all 
routers.
