No, that's the point, clicking the down arrow (or up arrow if one
happens to be near the bottom of the screen) does nothing.  Normally I
get a default 'transfer' account and only need to click the down arrow
to change it.  When this problem occurs there's no default transfer
account offered and the down arrow does nothing.
