LOV problem in a multi line edit list

JDeveloper 11.1.2.1

We where having problems with our LOV lookups in a multi table edit list.

Where scolling down on the lov with a substantial number of records the LOV list would just reflect Fetching Records... indefinitely.

For now I have bound the multi list LOV to another lov model I had on the page with the same LOV in and it works but I will put some more time in finding another solution to this at some time because I am going on holiday next week - awesome.

Example
Had the following LOV on the page

<af:inputListOfValues id="ilov1" popupTitle="Search and Select: #{bindings.EmployeeId.hints.label}"
  value="#{bindings.EmployeeId.inputValue}"
  label="#{bindings.EmployeeId.hints.label}"
  model="#{bindings.EmployeeId.listOfValuesModel}"
  required="#{bindings.EmployeeId.hints.mandatory}"
  columns="#{bindings.EmployeeId.hints.displayWidth}"
  shortDesc="#{bindings.EmployeeId.hints.tooltip}">

  <f:validator binding="#{bindings.EmployeeId.validator}"/>

  <af:convertNumber groupingUsed="false" pattern="#{bindings.EmployeeId.format}"/>

</af:inputListOfValues>

And this LOV was the problematic on in an editable table.

<af:inputListOfValues id="employeeIdId"
 popupTitle="Search and Select: #{bindings.JobHistoryView1.hints.EmployeeId.label}"
 value="#{row.bindings.EmployeeId.inputValue}"
 model="#{row.bindings.EmployeeId.listOfValuesModel}"
 required="#{bindings.JobHistoryView1.hints.EmployeeId.mandatory}"
 columns="#{bindings.JobHistoryView1.hints.EmployeeId.displayWidth}"
 shortDesc="#{bindings.JobHistoryView1.hints.EmployeeId.tooltip}">
  <f:validator binding="#{row.bindings.EmployeeId.validator}"/>
  <af:convertNumber groupingUsed="false"
    pattern="#{bindings.JobHistoryView1.hints.EmployeeId.format}"/>
</af:inputListOfValues>

So I endeded up with this for the problematic one:
<af:inputListOfValues id="employeeIdId"
 popupTitle="Search and Select: #{bindings.JobHistoryView1.hints.EmployeeId.label}"
 value="#{row.bindings.EmployeeId.inputValue}"
 model="#{bindings.EmployeeId.listOfValuesModel}"
 required="#{bindings.JobHistoryView1.hints.EmployeeId.mandatory}"
 columns="#{bindings.JobHistoryView1.hints.EmployeeId.displayWidth}"
 shortDesc="#{bindings.JobHistoryView1.hints.EmployeeId.tooltip}">
  <f:validator binding="#{row.bindings.EmployeeId.validator}"/>
  <af:convertNumber groupingUsed="false"
    pattern="#{bindings.JobHistoryView1.hints.EmployeeId.format}"/>
</af:inputListOfValues>
