Yep. I have exactly the same problem on 1.2.1. pfSense seems that it
can't track the state of the connections made on the same interface
but belong to different networks. It initially allows the connection
as it is in the rules but later on *some* packets are dropped by the
default rule even if there is an "Allow All" rule before it.

Enabling "Static Route Filtering" to bypass firewall rules for traffic
on the same interface didn't work for this problem.

I also faced this problem with a Linux/Netfilter firewall but didn't
try it on anything else yet (not even on pfSense 1.2.2).

As a workaround I routed the traffic from the L3 switch before
reaching pfSense but that left me with limited filtering capabilities
:/
