Do you have lots of minor-modes enabled?  Maybe one of them is
interfering.  Is your file very big?  Can you replicate with an ECM?
Does it have source blocks?  Have you tried turning off font-lock-mode;
does it succeed then?

Just some questions that I could think of.  Maybe the answer is lurking
here.

Another nice test would be to record and save the keyboard macro from
text-mode and try executing it from org-mode.

Hope this helps,
