displacement map disapears (AE7)

I created a water effect using fractal noise and fast blur on a solid. I use that pre-comp as a map for Displacement Map (like in Andrew Cramer's water tutorial). It works great. But after several seconds in time, the displacement map disapears! I checked if the pre-comp of the water map was to short, but it isn't. What is going wrong? Is there some unsolved bug in AE7?
Thanks in advance!

Does the water animation continue for the entire length of the comp that you're using as the displacement map?

The comp that I use as watermap was only animated with the mesh warp to create a weave effect. Now I also animated the evolution of the fractal noise, used in the watermap to create riples. But the problem is still there....
