TableView using splunkjs can show events but not tabular results. What am I doing wrong - or is it a bug

Tableview will only show events but I can not get it to show any table ie. "results" instead of "events".

For example:
"index = _internal | head 10"
works, but
"index = _internal | head 10 | table *" does not.

I know I have results because I can log them to console using sm.data("results");

require([
    'jquery',
    'underscore',
    'splunkjs/ready!',
    'splunkjs/mvc/searchmanager',
    'splunkjs/mvc/searchcontrolsview',
    'splunkjs/mvc/timelineview',
    'splunkjs/mvc/tableview',
    'splunkjs/mvc/eventsviewerview',
    'splunkjs/mvc/searchbarview'
    ],
    function(
        $,
        _,
        mvc,
        SearchManager,
        SearchControlsView,
        TimelineView,
        EventsViewer,
        TableView,
        SearchbarView
    ) {

        var sm =new SearchManager({
            id:  'main-search',
           search: '|inputlookup r.csv',

            preview: true,
            autostart: false,
        });

        var sb = new SearchbarView({
            id: 'main-searchbar',
            managerid: 'main-search',
            value: mvc.tokenSafe('$search$'),
            timerange_value: mvc.tokenSafe('$timeRange$'),
            el: $('#main-searchbar')
        }).render();

        sb.on("change", function() { 
           sm.settings.unset("search");
           sm.settings.set("search", sb.val());
           sm.startSearch();

       });

        var tv= new TableView({
            id: 'main-events',
            data: "results" ,
            managerid: 'main-search',
            el: $('#main-events')
        }).render();

        sm.on("search:done", function() {
            console.log(tv.settings.get("data"));
            console.log(sm.data("results"));
        });
});

And the dashboard:

<dashboard  script="searchtimeline.js">
  <label>ML Data Preparation</label>
  <row>
    <panel>
      <html>
       <div id="main-searchbar"></div>
       <div id="main-searchcontrols"></div>
           <div id="main-area">
                <div id="main-timeline"></div>
                <div id="main-events"></div>
            </div>
      </html>

    </panel>
  </row>
</dashboard>

I'm using Splunk 6.4.1 on Firefox.
