That'll be it.  When iftop starts up, does it say "Cannot obtain MAC
address on this platform"?  (you should be able to see this message
after you quit).

If so, then the problem is that it can't get the hardware address, and
because it's a bridge, the interfaces don't have an IP address, so it
can't determine which way the packets are actually moving.  

Either we need to figure out how to get the hardware address on FreeBSD,
or add an option to specify the hardware address.
