OpenBSD uses a "carp demote counter" that prevents to become master (but it will become master anyway if there is not carp advertizement on the interface). There is a sysctl in FreeBSD but it's readonly. This is used to delay carp until pfsync synchronization is done and by daemons like bgpd. Anyway if carp becomes master when the interface is set up, it looks to be a bug on FreeBSD (and if you are sure that the problem does not come from the switch). That works fine on OpenBSD.
