Can't browse system with multiple interfaces

I have two SGI systems running Samba 2.0.2. One has a network address of
x.y.166.76, the other has two interfaces: x.y.166.77 and x.y.170.51. The
subnet mask is 255.255.240.0. I also have an NT server acting as a PDC at
x.y.166.73. The problem is that the multi-interface system never locates the
master browser. The single interface system does and can be browsed. I can
connect to all the other services (map drives, use printers). Its just that I
can't see the multi-interface system in the Network Neighborhood. The smb.conf
files for the two systems are the same except for the required differences of
netbios name and interfaces definition. I have no idea what the problem could
be. I have tried using different netmasks (255.255.255.0) but the results are
the same. When running the tests, test 6 only finds responses from x.y.170.51.
The only other test to fail is test 10. Any help will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
