You might be referring to http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=121574 
which should have been fixed with rev 1.54 (MFC'ed in 1.52.2.1 to RELENG_7) of 
ip_carp.c

Make sure that you are configuring the same aliases with the same netmasks on 
all members of the carp group - preferably before bringing the interface up 
for the first time (though it should properly recalculate the hashes as you 
add aliases).  As you seem to be using pfsense you might want to check with 
them to make sure they have the fix in their build - though I recall it was a 
joined effort back then.
