Interesting. My A320 FCOM says:

"LATERAL CONTROL
When the aircraft flying in pitch alternate law, lateral control follows the roll direct law associated with yaw alternate or mechanical.

ROLL DIRECT LAW
Refer to Direct Law."

The fact that rudder produces a roll (despite the side stick is not centred) suggests to me that it is not commanding a roll rate in ALT Law.
