Unfortunately that's just how it works. Any packet sniffer attaches
to a device and only sees the packets that go through that specific
device.
The best you can do is run multiple sniffers, one per interface.
*Possibly* you might be able to use tcpdump for this and then write
something to interleave the packets from the timestamps.
