Did you try -K option? excerpt from dnsmasq man page:
"Should be set when dnsmasq is definatively the only DHCP server on a
network. It changes the behaviour from strict RFC compliance so that DHCP
requests on unknown leases from unknown hosts are not ignored. This allows
new hosts to get a lease without a tedious timeout under all
circumstances."
