There’s no inherent reason why this shouldn’t work, but I suspect that 
(somehow) you lost multicast routing when you switched to using a static IP.

To check this, run
        netstat -r -n
and check whether you have a route for 224/8

You might be able to fix this by running (as root):
        route add 224.0.0.0/4 ip-address-for-that-nic
