I haven't heard any issues with AFCI (arc fault circuit interrupters)
with our OutBack inverters - nor with three way switches. I don't see
why there would be any issues. Can you provide the brands of the parts
so we can test it here in the lab?
I am surprised that you are getting the AFCI tripping at all - my
experience is that they are pretty worthless devices. See the following
Mike Holt article:

I guess you have a three way circuit connected to a bedroom outlet which
then requires a AFCI then? They are not required for hardwire lamp
circuits (of course).
