I just reproduced your described setup exactly - I hope (on a Mac with Yosemite using LC7rc2) and it worked perfectly. So, either the version of LC you're using (you don't say which one it is) has let you down (i.e. is buggy), or something else is going on. I'll send you my tiny experimental stack off-list if it would help.
