Empty Drop-Down

I have bound a drop-down to an XML file and the form previews perfectly in LiveCycle.  However when the PDF is viewed in outside of LiveCycle (e.g normal Adobe Acrobat) the drop-down is empty.

I have checked;

1. Default File Type for New Forms in Tools->Options->Document Handling is set to Acrobat 8 (Dynamic) XML Form.

2.  The file path and data is known good.

I can get the drop-down populated manually by using Manage Form Data->Import Data but that is very ordinary behaviour that sort of defats the purpose of having a "dynamic data source".  Surely it should populate the form automagically when the form is loaded by the reader.....
