Subinterface doesn't respond to pings - NP Identity ifc

I'm trying to set up an 802.1 q trunk between my layer 3 switch and ASA5520.  I understand I need to create a subinterface to accomplish this and have done so.  However, the subinterface does not respond to pings, and when I attempt to run the packet tracer on the firewall itself, I get a message saying Flow is denied by configured rule.  But the strange thing is it shows the output interface as "np identity ifc":

(The VLAN in question is VLAN2 192.168.2.3 is the VLAN2 address on the switch).  The ASA config is as follows:

:

ASA Version 8.2(5) <context>

The sub-interface needs a vlan id, something like:

interface GigabitEthernet0/0.2

vlan 2

nameif Inside0/0.2

security-level 20

ip address 192.168.2.1 255.255.255.0 standby 192.168.2.2

!

Also on the switch dont forget to create vlan 2, than double check that it is allowed to cross the trunk.

Thanks for the reply.

A bit more info - the ASA is part of an active/active pair, and from what I understand, the VLAN can only be set at the system level.  I have done this for int gigabitethernet0/0.2 in the system config (VLAN2), but for some reason when I show the config at the context level it does not show the VLAN.

Also, I have confirmed the switchport is set for 802.1q trunking and VLAN 2 is allowed.

Is there something else I need to do to make sure the VLAN assignment is applied at the context level on the ASA?  Also, would this prevent the packet tracer from pinging the interface from the same subnet?

A little stumped here.

Bump...Any resolution? I have the exact same issue.
