Linq for NHibernate strange Count() behavior

I have what strikes me as a very unusual behavior from Linq for NHibernate.

In general, all my entity classes are working just fine, but one of them throws a "NonUniqueResult" exception from the NHibernate namespace under the following condition.

If I call the following:

getSession<MyClass>().Linq<MyClass>().Count();

it throws the exception. If I call

getSession<MyClass>().Linq<MyClass>().ToList().Count();

it does not.

There's no problem with the other CRUD operations for this class, so I don't think it's my mappings.

My guess is that it has something to do with how the Count() operator ultimately gets materialized as a SQL query, but beyond that I'm not sure where to look.

Updated to include mapping of the class in question

</class>
</hibernate-mapping>

Both version work fine for me in a simple unit test. In this example:

using ( var tx = Session.BeginTransaction() )
{
    int count = Session.Linq<Customer>().Count();
    Assert.Equal( 2, count );

    count = Session.Linq<Customer>().ToList().Count();
    Assert.Equal( 2, count );

    tx.Commit();
}

The first query performs a SQL count:

NHibernate: SELECT count(*) as y0_ FROM "Customer" this_

And the second gets all returns all items into a temporary list and then calls Count() on the list:

NHibernate: SELECT this_.Id as Id9_0_, this_.Name as Name9_0_ FROM "Customer" this_

This leads me to believe that there might be an issue with your mappings. And you really want to get the first one working cause the second won't scale for large datasets.
