Bristol struggled to have any impact on the game as the home side dominated proceedings.
Brighton then deservedly made it 2-0 on 25 minutes, with Andrea Orlandi grabbing the second goal from a free kick.
Bristol came close to pulling a goal back on 40 minutes, though Gordon Greer was on hand to clear Neil Danns' shot off the line.
Orlandi showed great skill and vision to create an opening for Craig Mackail-Smith in the second half, though his effort was deflected wide.
The final whistle blew on a comfortable 2-0 victory for Brighton.
