I did in fact screw up and put the two cards on the SAME network -- you know, just to test it out real quick. Bad idea. Problem is now solved.

You DO NOT configure the additional card to be on the same network as the first. What sort of networks are you connecting your cards to? IP addresses, contents of rc.conf?
