    I know, its not very obvious but that's how it works, Same with few other dialogs like when you try to route a case,

    I think it uses the Standard CRM Two Options field.

    When you do Assing, do you get an script error in the developer console? I would also enable plugin tracelog and see if anything being logged in there
