Did you have a look at the MTUs of the interfaces? If you need to support VLAN tagged frames, at least the physical interfaces need to accept frames with additional 4 bytes on the wire. If this is not handled in the driver the 1500+ETH+VLAN-frames will already be dropped (not even be received) at the physical interfaces. You may have to allow an MTU of 1504 for this reason.
