I'm coming in late here. I've been hitting this recently as well. I
found an entry in the livedocs that this has been noted by MM and should
be fixed in a future release. How I got around it was to tweek my
queries so that they had additional columns with the same data but did a
cast to a specific data type. E.g.

Select question_no,
         Char(question_no) as question_no_char

Not ideal I know but works great as a quick fix.
