I ran into the same problem. I am also running a 3 nodes cluster with
qdisk. Before, my node1 , node2  and nod3 has 1, 1, 2 votes and qdisk
had 2. I ran into the same problem as u are having now. Then I change
the votes from 2 to 1 to node 3 and added a vote to qdisk . Now it is
running fine. I don't know what happed before. I have tested a lot but
didnot succeeded.

Now my,
interval = 1 and tko=10 in my case.

Paras.
