Ok, my knowledge for troubleshooting is running out, but I have one last "fishing" expedition to try, but again, it shouldn't really matter, but I guess it can't hurt to try.
In your eqemu_config try uncommenting the world/local addresses and adding the 127.0.0.1 (below)
Code:
<address>127.0.0.1</address>
<localaddress>127.0.0.1</localaddress>
