Title: List Item Background Disappearing in IE

I've googled and discovered that yeah it's a known bug, Im just wandering if anyone has any suggestions on how to remedy it?

DETAILS:
I have an unordered list using css to load/position a graphical bullet point.
       
        ul li {background:transparent url("images/li_sprite.gif") no-repeat 0 0}

It works fine across the board until the text within the <li></li> wraps.
At this point the bullet disappears in IE5 and up (and Opera).

Adding a colour to the background (let's say white #fff) certainly fixes the problem.
       
        ul li {background:#fff url("images/li_sprite.gif") no-repeat 0 0}

But in this particular instance I can't use a background colour (hence transparent) and I've exhausted all my options. Im not alone in the world:

But there just doesn't seem to be a definitive solution... any info/ideas or otherwise on a way to fix this would be a great help.

Cheers
