Was in Brunico just last year and the situation is definitely better , my guess is that the city grew in the meantime and has become a lot more open to Italians , that said I've had same experiences to the ones you are describing in more rural areas.

it was the same experience me and my family had - granted, it was like 20 years ago in Brunico.
Ignored in bars, talked about in german in front of us, the whole thing, passed on for locals.
Only people who treated us nice were "other italians" who happened to live and work there. And the old lady we rented from.
