Hello there,

I am not sure about this as I am unfamiliar with the aforementioned client,
but have you tried compiling and insmodding all netfilter modules?
Maybe this is a bit like NAT'ed ftp,where there are special modules needed
for the server.
You already mentioned you used force_udp_encapsulation,if you have not yet
tried other 
UDP modules it might be worth the try.

greetings
Frederik
