Looking on itn.net and another system I use, there appears to be no A or D inventory on JFK-LAX or JFK-SFO. It is either P or J. There are some QF codeshares on JFK-LAX that give A or D but none on JFK-SFO. The same applies to certain MIA-LAX flights.

Is there a way around this?

It isn't accidental ... AA prefers to keep the seats empty rather than offer A/D fares on certain flights. Some do have historical last-minute demand for full premium fare. It varies by day of week/month as well as specific flight (time of day). Usually no last-minute availability on the really desirable flights.
