Note that if you'd like to debug a host joined group currently bridge mdb show
will not dump it and if the group is host-joined only it
can even be empty. You can use my latest set (not applied yet):
http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/project/netdev/list/?series=125169

Alternatively you could monitor the mdb events, it will show up there even
today without any changes (bridge monitor mdb) and you can check if it's
getting deleted.

Cheers,
 Nik
