PPPoFR

I have come across this problem a few times now and can't explain how it happens and secondly how to cure it. I have a hub and spoke using PPPoFR, with a single virtual template on the hub (this spawns to virtual-access interfaces each with the same ip address) - Simple enough config..

interface Serial0/0/0
 no ip address
 encapsulation frame-relay
 frame-relay interface-dlci 304 ppp Virtual-Template1
 frame-relay interface-dlci 305 ppp Virtual-Template1

interface Virtual-Template1
 ip address 164.1.0.3 255.255.255.128
 ip ospf network point-to-multipoint
 no peer neighbor-route

(This produces)

interface Virtual-Access1
 ip address 164.1.0.3 255.255.255.128
 ip ospf network point-to-multipoint
end

interface Virtual-Access2
 ip address 164.1.0.3 255.255.255.128
 ip ospf network point-to-multipoint
end

However now what ive seen happen is that the router seems to get confused and mixes up which of the spokes the routes are learned from so I am effectively learning routes in Virtual-Access 1 that are being displayed in the routing table as through Virtual-Access 2.

Im assuming the problem stems from these two entries in the routing table. I've also tried it with and without the peer neighbor route as I seen some examples online that used the 'no peer neighbor-route'.

O 164.1.0.5/32 [110/1] via 164.1.0.5, 00:11:06, Virtual-Access2
O 164.1.0.4/32 [110/1] via 164.1.0.4, 00:11:06, Virtual-Access2

See routing table attached... -> This must be something common as I've come across it a couple of times, but never got around to fixing it yet :(.

Any help greatly appreciated!!!!!!!!!
