h:selectOneMenu with s:selectItems not binding to anything

[cdiggins]

I have an h:selectOneMenu that contains an s:selectItems and an ec:convertEntity. With or without the convertEntity, I can not get the property the selectOneMenu is bound to be anything other than null.

<h:selectOneMenu value="#{employee.siEmpType}"> <s:selectItems value="#{employeeTypeList}"
var="empType" label="#{empType.siEmployeeTypeName}" noSelectionLabel="Select Type" /> <ec:convertEntity />
</h:selectOneMenu>
