I fit the 'A' category (so effectively I'm telling people to never hire me ;) ), over time I've gotten better at communication and I work better together with others now than in the past, but there is still a lot to be solved.
The best spots to 'plug me in' are when everybody else is ready to give up and it's a real challenge, or when I can write tools for others. (or under extreme stress). Those are the times when I thrive. If you want me to do the front-end of your web-app together with 5 others then please look somewhere else.
Whether or not A is an asshole is a call you can't make with the information given, it's perfectly possible to not be a team player and not be an asshole at the same time, if someone ignores decisions that were made then maybe that indicates they're working for the wrong boss or at the wrong level.
