It also can depend on whether the oid
of the device, as defined in oid_to_type, has the 'S' flag set. The CiscoWorks
integration sets most Cisco routers to S, meaning that the addresses may
be deleted and added repeatedly so don't bother to delete them on the config
poll. I've had better results with config polling cleaning them up when
there is not S on the oid.

Check the snmpwalk of the device and make sure the
devices are actually
removed
from the mib. There are a number of devices that will not update the mib
properly.
