Trouble running simple ajax4jsf enabled page

[tandy_sids]

I am trying to run this simple jsf application with ajax4jsf support. On change of the option in the options list, I would like to update the label. Trouble is that the label only updates after 2 or 3 options are selected.

Anyone got any ideas why this might be happeing?

Here is the code.

<h:selectOneMenu value="#{nontermCourseBean.type}" >
 <f:selectItem itemLabel="Organization" itemValue="Organization" />
 <f:selectItem itemLabel="Master Course" itemValue="Master Course" />
 <f:selectItem itemLabel="Test" itemValue="Test" />
 <a4j:support event="onchange" reRender="orgnamelabel" ajaxSingle="true" />

 </h:selectOneMenu>

 <br />

 <h:outputLabel id="orgnamelabel" value="#{nontermCourseBean.type} Name"></h:outputLabel>

Bean Config:

<managed-bean>
 <managed-bean-name>nontermCourseBean</managed-bean-name>
 <managed-bean-class>
 edu.umd.elms.nontermcourses.model.NonTermCourseRequestBean
