Your tech pilots should be able to answer if it's peculiar to your fleet/FMGC logic or some other thing, or at least email Airbus for tech request for one.
Well, I can say that it used to be an everyday occurrence on older 319s at our US airline; if you used speedbrakes with flaps 2 or greater, the speed would never come back to Vapp. It would settle about 3-5 knots faster. You could disconnect and reconnect Autothrust, and then the speed would be correct.

Speedbrakes with Flaps 1 would not show this discrepancy.

Some recent (within the past two years or so) change got rid of this glitch.
