Symfony 2 Entity Validation Callback not being called

Could someone help me figure out why my Callback validation method is not being called.

Basically what I need to do is a custom validation with following logic: - in the form I have 5 fields that if all empty, the form should be valid, - however if any of the is not empty all of them need to not be empty (they are used to build a real address on a user profile)

I have followed the doc from: http://symfony.com/doc/2.3/reference/constraints/Callback.html

I have the following code:

/**
 * User
 *
 * @ORM\Table(name="user")
 * @ORM\Entity(repositoryClass="UserRepository");
 * @UniqueEntity("email")
 * @ORM\HasLifecycleCallbacks
 * @Assert\Callback(methods={"isAddressValid"})
 */
class User extends WebserviceUser implements UserInterface, EquatableInterface
{
...

    public function isAddressValid(ExecutionContextInterface $context)
    {
        //die("I GOT HERE");
        $context->addViolationAt('sna4', 'Frikin validation'!', array(), null);
    }
}

The property sna4 is found in the class being extended.

Thank you in advance.

The callback annotation require (if any is defined) the validation group associated.

As Example, an entity used in different form context with a validation custom for a specific form:

The Entity Class:

/**
 *
 * @Assert\Callback(methods={"validateCommunicationEmail"}, groups={"userProfile"})
 * @Assert\Callback(methods={"validatePreference"}, groups={"userPreference"})
 */
class AcmePreferences
{

    ....

        public function validateCommunicationEmail(ExecutionContextInterface $context)
    {
        if ($this->getIsCommunicationsEnabled() && ! $this->getAdministrativeCommunicationEmail())
        {
            $context->addViolationAt('isCommunicationsEnabled','error.no_administrative_email_selected');
        }

    }

}

The Form Type:

class AcmePreferencesType extends AbstractType
{

    public function setDefaultOptions(OptionsResolverInterface $resolver)
    {
        $resolver->setDefaults(array(
            'data_class'=> 'Acme\DemoBundle\Entity\AcmePreferences',
            'validation_groups' => array('userProfile')
        ));
    }
