cross domain security group lookups/auth

I have one forest with 2 domain trees. Domain-A (root w/ domain partitions) and  Domain-B (tree in the forest).
I have Universal Security Groups in both domains. I have an application that use Domain-A security Groups and I need to add Domain-B users to those group. I have done so successfully. However, when you look at the properties of the Domain-B users accounts, you do not see that it is a part of Domain-A security group. You have to look at the properties of the Domain-A group to see that the Domain-B users is a part of that group.  -How can I resolve this?  I believe this is a 2 way trust between domains. Is this by design?
Im having an issues with Domain-B users logging into this Domain-A based application and the app is unable to auth the user because there are no Domain-B SG’s and the app does not look at Domain-A SG’s. There are hundreds of the SG’s in domain-A that we don’t want to re-create in domain-B, thus we need the app to look up domain-A SG’s… -Not sure if this is an issue with the app or AD? Any ideas?
