please try:

db.atable.othertablefield_id.represent=\
     lambda value: "%(num)s" % (db.v_othertable_num[value] or
{'num','unkown'}

(this will fix if the problem is that record is None)
and/or

db.atable.othertablefield_id.represent=\
     lambda value: str(db.v_othertable_num[value].num)

(this will fix it if it is a type conversion problem)
