I've never used pf, so I have no idea if this is relevant, but...

Are you doing NAT on this interface? If so, maybe you need to turn off 
various hardware checksum options in the interface.

     ifconfig_igb1="-vlanhwtso -tso4 -txcsum -rxcsum" (in /etc/rc.conf - 
replace igb1 with your interface name)

Maybe not all of those are needed.

It fixed problems for me with ipfw. It's worth a try anyway.

Good luck,
