is refraction activated in your gi tab?
if activated then stefan's setting should work...

is refraction activated in your gi tab?

Doesn't that only apply to caustics?

Judging from the almost white triangle on the floor behind the first window there should be enough light coming through the glass. You can check that easily by the way by making the glass invisible for a testshot.
You haven't by any chance deactivated the GI for the inner materials via a Vray compositing tag?
Have you used any multipliers in colour mapping?
