My $0.05:

Write down the framenumbers in which other objects should cover the lensflare.
Render your animation with lensflare shining through everything.
Render only the frames of which you've written down the numbers, with the
lensflare disappearing behind objects (remove your glass casing). I think
lensflares take more than one frame to disappear, so check it out.
This should work.

Hope this helps,
