Instrument bubble text wipeout not printing

I have run into a consistent problem in getting the wipeouts that are part of instrument bubbles to print.
They display properly on the screen, though when I print, or hit print preview they dissaprear. I have attached a screen shot and a printed PDF of a bubble.
I have tried different plot styles, various printers and drivers, I have checked the common wipeout problems (printer raster settings, wipeout layer on non-plot, 'scale lineweights' selected on plot, draw order, etc)
Also: If I use 'explode' on a tag, turing it into a block reference, the wipeouts work. Only when it is a dynamicasset are the wipeouts failing for me.
Has anyone else run into this problem, or have any ideas on what the problem could be?
