Windows Workflow 4.0 FlowSwitch not working

I'm creating a FlowChart within a Windows Workflow 4.0 project in Visual Studio 2010. I've added a FlowSwitchwith an expression of a variable passed in as an In Argument to the Activity. I can debug and see the values are passed in correctly, however my FlowSwitch is not switching at all to a case that is defined as the value being passed in. I've defined the FlowSwitch going to the Activity as the numeric value that the In Argument should be equal to. Is there something I'm missing?

A FlowSwitch works with string values at the moment. Try converting the InArgument to a string.

Example XAML:

<p:Activity mc:Ignorable="" x:Class="WorkflowConsoleApplication2.Flowchart1" xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/netfx/2009/xaml/activities/design" xmlns:__Flowchart1="clr-namespace:WorkflowConsoleApplication2;" xmlns:av="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation" xmlns:mc="http://schemas.openxmlformats.org/markup-compatibility/2006" xmlns:p="http://schemas.microsoft.com/netfx/2009/xaml/activities" xmlns:s="clr-namespace:System;assembly=mscorlib" xmlns:sad="clr-namespace:System.Activities.Debugger;assembly=System.Activities" xmlns:scg="clr-namespace:System.Collections.Generic;assembly=mscorlib" xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml">
