When I've done this I never bothered PVAing anything - I'm not convinced splashing PVA everywhere is a good idea even though people seem to love the stuff.
I just soak the bricks with a spray bottle so that they don't immediately suck all the moisture out of the plaster, then slap bonding on. Walls haven't caved in yet.
Removing tiles as part of bathroom renovation. Plaster under the window crumbled away. Was going to pva solution the brickwork and fire a load of bonding plaster onto it. Plan is to retile this area. Just sounding out if a sensible plan or if I should consider an alternative. First foray into plastering potentially.
