ICal Delegates are all set to "events affect availability"

I am using iCal to view my personal calendars and also several "delegates" calendars. These calendars were added using the "Accounts I can access" under the "Delegation" tab of the account pane. This is all working fine, except for one major problem. All the calendars that I can view but aren't my own have the "events affect availability" box checked and it cannot be unchecked. This means that when I try to schedule an event it looks like I am busier than I really am. For instance, one of the calendars is for a conference room, so I look busy whenever the room is busy. Also, I look busy whenever my wife is busy. I can tell iCal to not use my personal calendars when determining my free/busy time, but I am forced to be busy whenever someone else is busy. This seems very backwards to me. Can this be fixed or is it a bug?
Some calendars are through exchange and others are through google. They all have this problem.
Thanks in advance for any ideas.

Events for calendars that have that option off should not affect availability.
For a user having this problem, can you use Safari to browse to the following URL:
https://<<yourserver>>:8443/calendars/users/<<uid>>/inbox/
Substituting your server's hostname for <<yourserver>> and the user id for <<<uid>>.
You will be prompted to authenticate - do so as that user.
In the resulting page of information search for 'calendar-free-busy-set'. Attach the property value to your reply.
Then get the user to toggle the availability option for the calendar. Refresh the Safari webpage and attach the new property value.
