You've reported this before and I never figured out what's
happening for you (because it works fine for me).
Eventually, I again ran under LOCALE=en_EN and was able to
duplicate the behaviour. Alas, it isn't wrong or faulty per
se, however, it certainly does something unexpected.

When the phrasewheel finds matches for an input fragment it
will fill the list of suggestions. It will then "snap to"
the first suggestion should there only be one *exact* match.
In that case, however, no "value selected from pick list by
user" event is generated and thusly the limit interval fails
to pick up the user's (indirect) selection...

GNUmed will now send a fake "user-selected-from-pick-list"
when it picks from the list by itself.
