Thanks Mark - so I set the width of the TextView to "1000dp" (overkill? ;) ) and that works. i.e. its a workaround.
I'm pretty sure its nothing I'm doing in the ListActivity. My code is pretty much the same as the EfficientAdapter list demo in ApiDemos (but without reusing views). If its a bug, its quite an ugly one because when a list item does not fill_parent width then it looks very ugly when selected. BTW, I don't reuse views in this case because there are only about 6 items in the list, and the list is short enough to fit on most screens.
