There used to be a problem in some routers with ARP "management" of
the native VLAN. I Know this happens in 2610s. May be related.
Debug arp in the router (A) and see if the request/response are "routed"
to different interfaces (main/.20)...
You may try to move the native vlan config to the main interface
and see if that helps.
Bottom line, it should work. Native vlan is untagged by default.
