So much missunderstanding in here. At our table we homerule, that if you have 1-1/2 STR bonus on damage with an attack, so you do with power attack, raging brutality and other such bonuses. But it's not actually correct by RAW.
The most problematic, i think, is Dragond Disciples bite attack, that deals 1-1/2 STR damage, but by RAW is not two-handed for power attac. And what about raging brutality?
And intresting about other bonuses, such as furious focus (logically and by RAW this cannot be applied, but just a question).
Maybe there is a new FAQ for this confusing question? Thanks!
I don't understand what the actual question is here.
First off power attack contains this "This bonus to damage is increased by half (+50%) if you are making an attack with a two-handed weapon, a one handed weapon using two hands, or a primary natural weapon that adds 1-1/2 times your Strength modifier on damage rolls." So the dragon disciple bite attack absolutely gets the higher bonus. Raging brutality has no mention of natjral attacks, so they would never have the bigher bonus.
You can make exceptionally deadly melee attacks by sacrificing accuracy for strength.
Prerequisites: Str 13, base attack bonus +1.
Benefit: You can choose to take a –1 penalty on all melee attack rolls and combat maneuver checks to gain a +2 bonus on all melee damage rolls. This bonus to damage is increased by half (+50%) if you are making an attack with a two-handed weapon, a one handed weapon using two hands, or a primary natural weapon that adds 1-1/2 times your Strength modifier on damage rolls. This bonus to damage is halved (–50%) if you are making an attack with an off-hand weapon or secondary natural weapon.
When your base attack bonus reaches +4, and every 4 points thereafter, the penalty increases by –1 and the bonus to damage increases by +2.
You must choose to use this feat before making an attack roll, and its effects last until your next turn. The bonus damage does not apply to touch attacks or effects that do not deal hit point damage
Don't know if this is what you meant, but...

Oh. Thanks! There was not such adding about natural attacks earlier, I guess.
