As mentioned in the above link that seems to have a similar issue can your try using if it works if you use a apex:actionRegion?

Documentation for the tag: https://developer.salesforce.com/docs/atlas.en-us.pages.meta/pages/pages_compref_actionRegion.htm

Let me know if it helps you and close your query by marking it as solved so that it can help others in the future.  

Thanks.
