My first guess was that the packets not being handed to your dissector
are TCP segments that are reassembled. However, that would make more
sense if it was dissecting packets 3, 6, 9 not everything but those.
What protocol(s) does your dissector use? How are you registering it in
proto_reg_handoff_<your proto>()? Are packets 3, 6, 9 different in some
way?
