Looking at the ListView sourcecode, the only way to work around this is to set the ListView to CHOICE_MODE_NONE, then re-assign the ListAdapter (which clears the internal selection list regardless of choice mode)

getListView().setChoiceMode(ListView.CHOICE_MODE_NONE);
getListView().setAdapter(getListAdapter())
