The "safe select" solution works in all scenarios I have encountered, but clearly not in yours. The only difference is that in your case you use a CA. The intermediate cursor will "build a bridge" between the proven safe solution and the CA. I will surprised if this solution does not work.

NB! It may be necessary to add READWRITE to make sure that you create a brand new intermediate cursor, but I guess not.
