By the way, haven't seen any SOP that requires the switch to be off for push-back, that is what the pin on the nosewheel is there fore, and its status is shown as a line on the ECAM.
Mike Ray (former American Airlines Captain) mentioned this procedure in his A320 check ride book.
No. Normal brake failure is basically a non-issue. Alternate brake takes over, braking is a bit more sensitive and autobrake is lost. But that is about it.
Is alternate brake then still pressured by green or by yellow system?
