Spots,

Not sure I follow all of your questions, but if the shares were in different accounts, you don't have to further designate them. Obviously. broker B can't sell the specific shares held at broker A, so they must have sold the shares you bought from them. FIFO only applies within a given account, not across all your accounts.

Since you had a profit on your broker B sales, I don't see any wash sale problems.
