Don't know whether you got an answer to this but googling

"update reftex when bibliography file changes"

gives a number of useful links.  The first one is actually org related:

http://tincman.wordpress.com/2011/01/04/research-paper-management-with-emacs-org-mode-and-reftex/

and mentions the need to auto-revert the bibliography file. The second
google result says the same thing:

https://josephhall.org/nqb2/index.php/reftex-1

HTH,
eric

PS - I have auto-revert set globally so I would have noticed a problem
but, in any case, I do all my bibtex editing in Emacs ;-)
