I am trying to bind a combo box to a list of objects, and it works great, besides the selected value, am I missing somethign?

<ComboBox ItemsSource="{Binding OrderInfoVm.AllCountries}"
          SelectedValuePath="country_code" DisplayMemberPath="country_name" 
          SelectedValue="{Binding OrderInfoVm.BillingCountry}" />

Basically I want to bind value to country codes and set the selected value to the country code bound to OrderInfoVm.BillingCountry (which implements INotifyPropertyChanged)

Initially when the control loads selected value is empty, but on click BillingCountry is populated. Selected value does not seem to change. How can I remedy that?
