a4j:commandLink - Bean's action not fired

[snew2k5]

Hi all,
I'm facing a strange problem. Here is my code fragment

...
<h:form>
...
 <a4j:commandLink
 action="#{bean.edit}"
 actionListener="#{bean.actionListener}"
 value="Edit"
 reRender="mpInfo"
 oncomplete="Richfaces.showModalPanel('mpInfo', {top:20})">

 <f:param name="refId" value="#{bean.refId}"/>
 </a4j:commandLink>
...
</h:form>
...

When I click on this link, the modal panel is shown but the bean's action (edit) and action listener (actionListener) are not called. I tried to change those actions' names to other invalid names but no errors occured.
Any suggestions? Thanks a lot.

I have a similar problem with commandButton. Actions are not called. This affects the 3.0.1 release of RichFaces. The June 1 snapshot build works as expected.

Oh, and as noted elsewhere, there is a compatibility issue with versions of Tomahawk.

For the record, here's what works for me:

MyFaces 1.1.5
Tomahawk 1.1.3
Tomahawk Sandbox 1.1.3 snapshot (2006/05/26)
Richafaces 3.0.1 snapshot (2006/06/01)

If I change either RichFaces or Tomahawk to use later releases, then the action on the a4j command button no longer fires.

If I change the JSF code to use a h:commandButton with a4j:support then the action is fired, but I get JavaScript errors in the Tomahawk hidden field clear script.
