This should already be fixed with debconf 1.4.66 in unstable, but you'll have to wait a couple of days for that to trickle down to testing before the image type you're using will work. Even then, there will still be a few bugs, notably an unfiled cdebconf crash (which you can avoid by opting into popularity-contest - no, it's not a conspiracy to make people join popcon!) and bug #344785 in xserver-xorg.
