Emacs & Autocomplete: disable RET to enter?

I'd like to only auto-complete when I hit the TAB key, and not when hitting RET. I've tried a number of config options, but I can't seem to disable the action. Here's my current config, which contains all the variations I've tried:

(define-key ac-completing-map "\t" 'ac-complete) ; use tab to complete, working
(define-key ac-completing-map "\r" nil)
(define-key ac-completing-map "\C-m" nil)
(define-key ac-completing-map "RET" nil)
(define-key ac-completing-map "<return>" nil)

Interestingly, \C-m does work as expected, but hitting RET doesn't.

Can someone tell me what I'm missing?

These two lines alone work for me:

(define-key ac-completing-map [return] nil)
(define-key ac-completing-map "\r" nil)

If they does not work for you, you may post the value of ac-completing-map so we can figure out what is happening.
