I have an ASR1001 here and ran into the same problem. The ASR1k series does not talk to GLC-T (or GLC-T compatible) transceivers. If you look at http://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/td/docs/interfaces_modules/transceiver_modules/compatibility/matrix/OL_6981.html you'll see that only the SFP-GE-T is listed for the ASR 1000 series and not the GLC-T. I am using Solid Optics transceivers, and their GLC-T compatible transceiver did not work in exactly the same way you describe. I replaced them with their SFP-GE-T model which works perfectly.
