That's very strange. It's opposite of how it's supposed to work.

Do you mean there are multiple A-ports on the board hooked up to the
same controller?

If so, that would go a long way towards explaining things. Because the
hsotg is a single-port OTG controller. If there are multiple A-ports,
that means a hub has to be hard-wired internally to the port. But if
that's the case the OTG function won't work because OTG doesn't work
through a hub. It must go directly to the otg port. So there must be
some external logic kicking-in to switch routing to the OTG port or to
the HUB.

This would explain this behavior with the ID pin status. Since hooking
up the HUB would make the controller an A-device whereas normally it
would be a B-device.

Yeah it would be good to get some insight into this from a hardware
point of view.
