Trying set css styles in combo box cells getStyleClass.add(...) is not working and you must use listview.setStyle.

Attached test Class

in updateSelected if you use
setStyle("-fx-background-color: linear-gradient(to bottom,#C4D019, #586F25); -fx-graphic:url('imgcab_cmbperfil.png'); -fx-graphic-text-gap:10;");
instead
getStyleClass().add("selectedLabel");
first option (the selected one) get the style properly.

It happens in almost every coded styles of this test.
