Yeah, they do, which might make a little bit of sense if multicasts were also being sent out the WAN port, but they aren't.

Perhaps the NAT rules for the WAN port are erroneously being applied to packets traversing the bridge? IIRC the decision of whether to mangle a packet for NAT is separate from the decision to route the packet out over any particular interface, and if you have multiple interfaces you need to include a condition (e.g. in my case it's "-A POSTROUTING -t nat -s $LOCAL_IP_RANGE -o $WAN_DEV -j MASQUERADE") to prevent NATing of internal packets. If the "-o $WAN_DEV" condition were omitted it could cause the symptoms you're seeing.

The easiest to troubleshoot bridging is to temporarily iptables --flush and see whether the problem still happens or not.
