Oregon 650 > Where To? > Address > State search broken with OTM map installed

Greetings Folks,
I have an Issue with my Oregon 650. I currently have the Northeast 24K Garmin topo map, and northeast region Open Street Maps installed on the external SD card in the Garmin Folder. The Garmin Northeast 24K is named gmapsupp.img, the open Street map is named OSM.img. I can boot up the Oregon, and select "where to->Address" and the Oregon prompts for the "State", and allows me to enter a state, say Connecticut... then proceeds on to city, and street, etc..
The problem I am having is when I attempt to add an Open Topo Map (downloaded from: opentopomap.org). I place the opentopo.img in the external SD Garmin folder along with the other two .img files, boot up the Oregon, and the Open topo shows available in the "configure maps-->enable" menu. Now, when I select "where to-->Address", the Oregon no longer prompts for a "State" it goes directly to "Country" (where I can select either USA or Canada, and then directly to "City", no option for selecting which state. Going into the Configure maps and disabling the OpenTopoMap makes no difference at all. The only way to get the "Enter state" functionality back it to go in manually to the SD card, and remove/delete the OpenTopoMap from the Garmin folder. Once that is done and the Oregon is power cycled, The "where-to-->address-->state" functionality is restored.
Anyone have any Ideas on where I a going wrong here and/or any suggestions for getting it working with the three maps?
Thanks!
