Ah, interesting - it seems that Android insists on acquiring an IPv4 address, only then will it also do IPv6. I had adjusted our DHCP server to deny IPv4 to this device; when I reverted to the previous config, the device got both addresses. Weird. That's not good. IPv6 should not be dependent on IPv4. I just verified that. I turned off my IPv4 DHCP server and my tablet would not connect. As soon as I started dhcp again, my tablet connected with both IPv4 & IPv6 addresses. This is a serious flaw. I hope Google fixes it soon.
I just checked with my notebook computer, running openSUSE 13.1. It gets just an IPv6 address when the IPv4 dhcp server is stopped.
One thing though, while it connects with IPv6 only, the icon on the Network Manager keeps spinning, while it looks for an IPv4 address. The developers should get with what will be the future of IPv6 only.
Just change the interface to ipv6-only? That's what I did.
