The tcpdump that you say continues showing packets......are the packets 
leaving the freeBSD machine or arriving at the FreeBSD machine.
My guess is you meant leaving the FreeBSD destined for your linux 
machine.  If this is the case, then the problem most likely lies with 
the ASA.
If you monitor the ASA's external interface during your testing, do you 
see packets arriving?  If so, do you see packets leaving the internal 
interface going back to your Linux1 machine?
