Have you found a solution for this? I'm having similar problem. I have set my custom data descriptor to my menu before showing it, however the sub-menu that is automatically created, is having the DefaultDataDescriptor assigned to it. This causes the sub-menu to fail to show.
I am not sure why your data descriptor methods were not being called, my menu data provider is an ArrayCollection of objects, and my methods are being called. You might give that a shot.
