I've had a similar issue: I've a bridge between openvpn and my local network.
I do not want any filtering between these too part.
I put:
  router bridge inface br0 outface br0
     client all accept

It did not work: NEW, ESTABLISHED and RELATED packets go through, but some
INVALID packets were here (I do not search why) and were filtered.
I solve this by putting:
  router bridge inface br0 outface br0
    policy accept

It has been difficult for me to find the problem because nothing in the log
shows the state of packets. Inspecting with "iptables -L", adding some logs
and trying some new iptables rules allow me to find the problem with
INVALID dropped packets. Then google with firehol and INVALID finds the
solution with the "policy accept" statement.
