That reminds me of the Arris cable modems in .nl where eMule or torrent traffic with a upload over 1 mbit (of 2) would cause the actual voip port to fail and unable to call. Intruiging failure before that one was acknowledged, they ended up rolling out the Motorola Surfboard. So eventhough the cable modem is effectively a bridge, it did actually keep state causing hard to diagnose failures and issues. Also, maybe just a strange thought, but did you check the pfSense LAN port as well? It could be either port causing the issues, since all traffic flows through it. Although IRQ conflicts should really be gone by now, you might try seating the card in a different slot (if that is possible).
