How is it configured? batman-adv uses the MAC addresses in the 802.11 header to understand which node is a direct neighbour, therefore the bridge in the middle may screw up this mechanism. It really depends on how the bridge is implemented (it is not a standard component).

That works just fine, these devices are able to transparently forward the batman-adv ethernet frames.
