Replies to twitter users go through the twitterbridge just fine.
When a notice is just directed towards a twitter user it does not seem to go through.
Example of succesfull twitter reply:
a. original on sn instance: http://o.mrblog.nl/notice/2408042
b. same notice on twitter: https://twitter.com/mrvdb/status/220802085048950785
Example of notice that does not go through:

Is your checkbox checked on Settings -> Twitter -> "Send local "@" replies to Twitter."?
There is currently no specific recognition of Twitter nicknames in the codebase when posting.
Is it your request that a solution for specifically recognising Twitter mentions should be implemented? It is my opinion that it would be too much coding and defeating the purpose of federation if every site would require this specialisation.

The checkbox you mention is off; it would cause *all* mentions to go to twitter, which would solve this problem but make things worse from a conceptual point of view.
It is indeed my request that the twitterbridge plugin collects/uses info which twitter (or other) timelines the posting account is subscribed and pushes mentions to them through the bridge.
If the poster is not subscribed to the mentioned user I can understand not pushing the notice through the bridge and have the current behaviour.
I see it as an asymetric behaviour now, the plugin allows to pull in messages from subscribed resources but does not properly push them back out in the same manner.
