Your test case is straightforward. And I am confident that you're right in this
kind of setup.

But there's significant difference. In your test case, the endpoint
addresses are configured
directly on attached link. In my case, the wireguard server's endpoint
address is configured on
dummy interface, not attached link.

I reproduce the problem while using tcpdump to get some clues,

1. server can receives client's packet
2. server 'wg' output shows client's endpoint addr:port correctly
3. tcpdump on client only captures outgoing request packets, no
response from server
4. tcpdump on server only captures incoming request packets, no
response (on all physical interfaces)

I was wrong. Response is not routed via default gateway, or other
interfaces. There is NO response at all.
Very sorry for misleading.

I am not familiar with test in namespace. I will look into it.
Hopefully I can come back
with a patch.
