rich:comboBox onchange not firing when selecting

[cgswtsu78]

Hello,

I have the below comboBox and the valueChangeListener only gets fired when I type in the box and the select an item.  If I just use the normal dropdown functionality (click the arrow without typing) and select an item, the valuChangeEvent never gets fired.  Any ideas? 

<rich:comboBox id="country"

                          suggestionValues="#{preferenceBean.countries}"

                          defaultLabel="Enter some value"

                          value="#{preferenceBean.countrySelected}"

                          valueChangeListener="#{preferenceBean.countryValueChange}">

                           <a4j:support event ="onchange" reRender = "timezone"/>

                        </rich:comboBox>

request scoped bean:

public void countryValueChange(ValueChangeEvent e){

       System.out.println("here");

    }
