[FTPU SDK] Using custom binding source with combobox

I have some problems with binding custom datasources to a Combobox (it's the same for listviews as well.)

I have a BindingList<MyCustomObject> where MyCustomObject implements the INotifyPropertyChanged interface. I add this list to the DataSource of a ComboBox and set the DisplayMember to one of the properties on the MyCustomObject. Unfortunately the binding doesn't work - the combo doesn't show any of the objects in the list or react to new items added.

I've tried to create a BindingSource with the DataSource set to the BindingList and set the DataSource for the ComboBox to the BindingSource instead but that doesn't help.

If I add a normal ComboBox from the .NET 2.0 CF the binding works perfect. Does the custom ABB FTPU ComboBox lack support for other binding sources than RapidDataBindingSource and SignalBindingSource?
