The "duplex" feature has had its issues :( I think you'll find that if you set networkTTL to 1, the topic consumer(s) on broker A will not get duplicate messages. However, even with networkTTL set to greater than 1, broker B should not be sending messages back to where they came from.
Re your first 'queue' scenario; broker A should definitely not be sending 'queue' messages to broker B especially since you've got dynamicOnly set to true. You should open a JIRA for this.
