Does your access point do any sort of filtering (like MAC-based table
of authorized users)?  Perhaps PC1 is not listed as authorized and so
the AP won't forward his traffic when it receives it from the wireless
side (repeated through the Linux bridge).

The linux bridge is a wireless client, not an access point, right?
