[c-nsp] 3825 sending DSCP in one direction, but not the other.

The topology: (hopefully my ASCII drawing formats correctly)
-------------

[IPTube1]-<vlan11>-[2970]-<vlan11>-[3825]-<vlan42>-[1811]-<vlan31>- 
[IPTube2]

The IPTubes are from Engage and are TDM to IP devices that have been  
configured to mark packets with ToS 0x08 (DSCP 2).

The problem:
------------
The 3825 either isn't receiving DSCP 2 from IPTube2 or isn't sending  
DSCP 2 from IPTube 2 on to IPTube 1:

1811#show policy-map interface vlan42
Vlan42

In the other direction, everything is fine.  The 1811 is seeing DSCP 2  
from IPTube 1 all the way through the network without a problem:

3825#show policy-map int vlan42 output
Vlan42

Service-policy output: IPTube

Anyone see anything fishy in the configs or in the software versions  
that might explain this?  Only the non-working bits are included  
below, but in both the working and non-working cases, the same class- 
map and policy-map are used.



SW versions:
----------
3825: 12.4(10) (Advanced IP Services)
1811: 12.4(6)T11 (Advanced IP Services)

Configs:
-------

Thanks in advance for any insight folks.
