An additional option to "-A" would not help here. When a source-only upload is made, normal autobuilders do "dpkg-buildpackage -B" and a special "Arch: all" autobuilder would do "dpkg-buildpackage -A" to create the arch-independent packages. There is no way to tell the autobuilder "hi, please pass an additional option, because otherwise my package fails". What we want here is to not run the tests, by design, when only the architecture-independent packages are created. I see that you are using "dh" and several override_* targets. So, maybe a target "override_dh_auto_test-indep" that does not do anything would fix this.
