UI of pager is not updated correctly when there are changes on the items-array using myObservableArray.setItem(...,...)

Hello,
at first, thank you for creating this plugin, it will help us a lot for our project.

After playing around with the plugin for a while, I have some trouble when initializing the pager.
I try to dynamically fill the pager with content that is getting loaded from the server, but the content gets visible only when navigating to another page and back.

Here is what I am doing:

<pager:Pager id="pager" items="{{ items }}">
    <pager:Pager.itemTemplate>
        <ScrollView>
            <GridLayout rows="auto,auto,*" columns="*" backgroundColor="#DBE8C1">
                <Label row="0" text="{{ title }}"/>
                <Label row="1" text="{{ text }}"/>
            </GridLayout>
        </ScrollView>
    </pager:Pager.itemTemplate>
</pager:Pager>

exports.vmMain = observableModule.fromObject({
    selectedIndex: 0,
    items: new observableArrayModule.ObservableArray(),

    loadStoryChapters: function () {
        var self = this;

        ffHttpModule.startHttpRequest(
            ...
            //success callback
            function(response) {
               self.set("items", new observableArrayModule.ObservableArray(response.listItems));
               
               //does not work correctly, title and text are visible after navigating to another page and back
               self.get('items').setItem(
                   0, 
                   { id: "..." title: "First item", text: "This is the text of the first item..." }
               );
            }
        );
    }
});

When using this code for a ListView, the data is shown as expected, so the source of this problem really seems to be somewhere in the pager implementation.
I hope this can be fixed.
