This could perhaps be a problem with the retrieval of the switch
value, rather than the controller per se.

Might be worth wrapping the value in a log() function call to check it.

Otherwise, it might be a bug, in which case please create a Bugzilla
issue with a short test case (the Java Sampler is useful here).
