[avahi] Service Name Conflicts

I have several Linux machines all running kernel version 3.12 and avahi-daemon 0.6.31. Each machine has a unique host name and they are all advertising an ssh, sftp, and http. When I start all the machines up everything runs just fine. If one of the machines gets re-booted, when the avahi-daemon on that machine starts up again, it reports service conflicts every couple of seconds:

Jun  1 16:20:12 Node00b01973d6c8 daemon.notice avahi-daemon[1624]: Service name conflict for "%h" (/services/ssh.service), retrying with "Node00b01973d6c8 #2".
Jun  1 16:20:12 Node00b01973d6c8 daemon.notice avahi-daemon[1624]: Service name conflict for "%h" (/services/http.service), retrying with "Node00b01973d6c8 #2".
Jun  1 16:20:32 Node00b01973d6c8 daemon.notice avahi-daemon[1624]: Service name conflict for "%h" (/services/sftp-ssh.service), retrying with "Node00b01973d6c8 #2".

These message print every few seconds. The only way I have been able to make them go away is to reboot all the machines running the avahi-daemon. Any suggestions on how to fix this?
