On a FreeBSD VM, tshark will always wait 75 seconds before actually working, no
matter if sniffing or just calling "tshark -v".
It's certainly not the network interfaces because tcpdump runs perfectly and
immediately.
After this waiting time, tshark will work normally (as far as I saw until now)

Here's some output, interestingly when listing available interfaces the wait
time will double:

dev# time tshark -D
1. vmx0
2. vmx1
3. vmx2
4. lo0 (Loopback)
5. randpkt (Random packet generator)

dev# time tshark -v
