I also see this in the server strace, when the failure occurs:
  open("/proc/fs/nfsd/filehandle", O_RDWR|O_LARGEFILE) = 9
  write(9, "@mygroup /data/A_1 64 \n", 24) = -1 EPERM (Operation not permitted)
  read(9, "", 4096)                       = 0
  close(9)                                = 0

This does not occur on a successful automount attempt, instead I get:
  open("/proc/fs/nfsd/filehandle", O_RDWR|O_LARGEFILE) = 10
  write(10, "@mygroup /data/A_1 64 \n", 24) = 24
  read(10, "\\x0100000000fe000502000000\n", 4096) = 27
  close(10)                               = 0
