After migrating the configuration from v17.5 to v18 IPSec only works one way

I have two routers with XG firewall at my disposal. On the old one running XG ver. 17.5 everything works fine. On the new router running XG 18 - after importing the configuration from the old router - the same IPSec site-to-site connections only work one way.

The symptoms are as follows:
- IPSec tunnel is setting up correctly,
- remote device can ping XG and devices behind XG in the local LAN,
- while pinging the remote device from the XG management console, packets are sent from WAN interface instead of the router local interface.

Where could be the cause of the problem? 

Configuration:
local router IP: 172.16.16.20
local LAN: 172.16.16.0/24
remote router IP: 10.0.43.1
remote LAN: 10.0.43.0/24

Console ping to remote device:

XG230_WP02_SFOS 18.0.4 MR-4# ping 10.0.43.1 -i 172.16.16.20
PING 10.0.43.1 (10.0.43.1) from 172.16.16.20: 56 data bytes

On my good old router on IP address 172.16.16.15 the same ping is working correctly:
