Bryan,
Here is the code that I used to get it work. Note that without the
visibility.nil? check, the new record took on the first record and the one that
I selected in the form.
def after_initialize
if new_record? && self.visibility.nil?
self.visibility = Visibility.first
end
end
Thanks for your help!

There are at least 3 ways. Usually #1 is the right way, but there
are exceptions.
1) Model side:
def after_initialize
if new_record? && !user.nil?
country = user.country
end
end
2) Controller/view side in Ruby code:
<% this.country = Country.first if this.country.nil? %>
3) set the include-none option to false on your select-one.
