In the Cisco Press book there was some good reading on auto RP over NBMA.
The placement of the MA and RP candidates looked as if were the main
concern, if I understood it correctly along with the NBMA mode command and I
think the type of multicast enabled on the interface??? (I think it would
not work with sparse-dense mode?) I tried to duplicate a complicated DLCI
mapping issue with PIM-SM and auto-RP and was unable to get it working with
12.0.11 code in all routers until I moved the MA. As you stated it worked
when you moved the RP discovery to the frame spoke? The multicast book by
Cisco press does a goof job explaining this situation, much better than I :)

Include your configs so we can take a look at them. Is R1 also configured as
the mapping agent?

This is exactly the same problem I was working on last night. And I had
exactly
the same problem that you are having. And still searching for a answer.
Like you
I tried "IP PIM NBMA-Mode" on the hub and it didn't help. I am pretty sure
if
point-to-point links are done between the hub and spokes it will work.
So at this point without using point-to-point subinterfaces I am not sure
what
the answer is.
