Yes, we've seen this phenomenon for once at our facility in Taiwan. Instead of (ID-MTS) Gel Test commonly used in US, we use ORTHO BIOVUE system column agglutination technology. The principles of these two systems are similar.
We had a blood sample with a negative DAT, yet a positive autocontrol. Upon second centrifugation, the positive autocontrol turned to be negative. We then performed the autocontrol using tube method and found obvious rouleaux formation after immediate spin. We thus concluded that rouleaux formation of red blood cells might have caused a false positive reaction in CAT.
