2 labels show up when labelling a joined table

Hi,

I wonder if anyone has encountered this. I joined a feature class to a table, and turned on labelling using one of the fields from the joined table. I expected 1 label to draw per feature, but instead, multiple labels were sometimes drawn. Theses features do relate to multiple rows in the table, but I'm using a join (i only need one label), and the attribute table does show only 1 row for that feature.

I've tried the options to have 1 label per feature, 1 label per feature part, and also to remove duplicates, but I get the same results - the 2 related records do not always have the same values for that field, and the features are not multipart features.

Is there some option/setting I should be using to resolve this?

I've attached a layer package that should allow duplicate the issue.

It works (or doesn't, as the case may be) for me. Let me know if you see it too.
