I am facing a similar issue:
I have a 24VDC powered device that needs to meet CISPR 11.
We planned to recommend a particular class B power supply with this device.
However the noise from our device appears to be pushing through the power
supply and limiting the combo to class A.  The problem area is in the 5-30
MHz. range.  

So now I need to resolve if the power supply by itself is the issue or if
our device is the culprit.  Radiated wise I can achieve class B with this
combo.

Consider the Essential Requirements of the Directive, not what a 
particular standard wasn't written to cover. If your non-mains ports 
emit significantly, you should measure those emissions, and justify in 
your EMC assessment what limits you apply.

It isn't clear why the type of power supply should affect whether 
non-mains port emissions are measured.
