half the packet missing in wireshark with bridged network

Hello everyone,

I am discovering virtualBox after years of VMWare and Xen. I use VBox 2.1 under WinXP SP2. I have a linux (AsteriskNow) guest that run on a bridge network. Everything seems to work great, but when I try to capture the packets going on the bridge interface (on the host) with Wireshark, I only see the packets that go from the guest to the outside, not the ones that come from the outside to the guest. When I do a tcpdump on the guest every thing is working fine.
Can I do something to see every packet on the host ? (it is really not easy to put tcpdump every where).

Regards,
Laurent
