AURP Tunnel Endpoint Pings

I'm working through the FatKid labs, and I've got some weird behavior on
AURP tunnels.

I've got the tunnel, and it works great. Packets go through it like crazy.
The only problem seems to be that the two routers that form the endpoints
can't ping anything on the other side of the tunnel. I get:

00:08:57: %AT-3-NOSRCADDR: Tunnel0: AppleTalk packet error; no source
address available

To REALLY confuse the issue, things on the other side of the tunnel CAN ping
the router interfaces that can not, in turn, ping back. The ping failures
are asymmetrical. If initiated from anything other than a tunnel endpoint,
they work great.

I've hung all sorts of address on the tunnel interface, and nothing seems to
work.

Is this the expected behavior of AURP, or should I keep beating my head
against the monitor? I can't find any documented limitations that would
cover this problem.
