pacserve multicast incompatible with bridged interfaces?

Is anyone able to get pacserve working in multicast mode on a bridged interface?

I have three physical interfaces: wan0, lan0, and wlan0. There is a bridge interface br0, which bridges lan0 and wlan0. If I specify '--multicast-address br0' or '--multicast-interface br0', it still seems to only use wan0, as evidenced by /proc/net/igmp:

Is this a bug, or am I missing something here?

Thanks!
