You are seeing the correct behaviour. One end of the BGP peer needs a
specific IP route to the neighbor, can't use a default route so one end can
use a default route but not both ends, at least one end need a actual route
to it. The client (higher ip address i think) initiates the session to the
server (lower IP address) so the lower ip address could use your default and
the higher ip address needs the more specific.
