Why checkedItem in setSingleChoiceItems method of AlertDialog doesn't works?

Question

I'm trying to set default selected item inside AlertDialog list.

Please see the code below:

final CharSequence[] tools = GetTools(toolTypeIndex);
if (tools.length > 0) {
    final AlertDialog.Builder builder = new AlertDialog.Builder(getActivity());
    final int selectedTool = GetToolIndex();

    if(selectedTool>=0)
    {
        builder.setTitle("Select the tool")
            .setSingleChoiceItems(tools, selectedTool,
                    new DialogInterface.OnClickListener() {
                        public void onClick(DialogInterface dialog, int item) {
                            ...
                        }
                    })
            .setPositiveButton("Ok", new DialogInterface.OnClickListener() {
                @Override
                public void onClick(DialogInterface dialog, int which) {
                ...
                    }
            })
            .show();
    }
}

But it doesn't works. If selectedTool>=0 then always selected only first item by default. If selectedTool==-1 then no selected items.

It is very strange situation. I read documentation AlertDialog.Builder setSingleChoiceItems but it doesn't help me.

This is the bug in Android. What is your API version?
