An interesting observation. This can be tested by adding --filesystem=/etc/
hosts:ro to the flatpak invocation.

My guess was the unix socket would not be available to the flatpak. Reading 
the footnote on the flatpak Sandbox Permissions page http://docs.flatpak.org/
en/latest/sandbox-permissions-reference.html#f2 on the other hand suggests 
what you also indicate: --share=network should give access to unix-sockets 
(I'm not sure why flatpak makes that "abstract" Unix sockets though).
