WP 7.1: VisualStateManager.GotoState doesn't work when called from PropertyChangedCallback of a dependency property

Question

I have a PropertyChangedCallback of a dependency property from which inside I try to change a VisualState using VisualStateMangager.GotoState(...). It doesn't work.

Even if I ty to change Visibilty or IsEnabled property of a UI element it doesn't work.

Is there something special I have to take into account?

Any help is very much appreciated.

This is just a wild guess, are you on the UI thread? I would expect an exception if you tried it on another thread, but just a thought.
