How about something like this when the site gets called. It works fine for me:

if (this.defaultLabel == "") {
    var firstItem = this.clientSelectItems[0];
    var key = $(firstItem).attr("id");
    var label;
    $.each(this.clientSelectItems, function() {
        if (this.id == key) {
            label = this.label;
            return false;
        }
    });
    this.__setValue(label);
    this.__save();
    this.invokeEvent.call(this, "selectitem", document.getElementById(this.id));
}
