Brocade to Meraki Spanning-tree interoperability

We're in the process of ripping out our Brocade ICX switches with Meraki.

The Brocades are running 802.1w spanning-tree for all VLANs

But when we plug in a Meraki the Meraki's uplink port enters a blocking state.

Reading the documentation Meraki doesn't have a full implementation of Rapid PVST+ and recommends running Trunks with native VLAN 1 on all uplinks to allow interoperability...

But that's for Cisco > Meraki and it's not working with our Brocades.

Anyone have any experience with this?

Or I'm I just going to have to trial and error this until I get it to work?
