Nexus 1000v Span ports

Does anyone know how to configure the 1000v to span to a port-channel?  I can get it to work using a single interface but whenever I attempt to span to a port-channel no traffic is getting passed.  The port-channel is the uplink to the 3120 switch. Any suggestions? Thanks

I'll go ahead and answer my own question.

It's a bug in the 4.2SV1(4) code.  Bug has been fixed and should be included in the latest release.
