Hi,

I encounter an issue while trying to determine default value for my multiple mdb-select and while the values are numbers.The multiple mdb-select works fine when it's string values.

This is my select :

<select id="product" name="product[]" class="mdb-select md-form initialized" multiple="" searchable="Search">
    <option value="">None</option>
    <optgroup label="Products Cat 1">
        <option value="22">Product 1</option>
        <option value="23">Product 2</option>
        <option value="24">Product 3</option>
        <option value="25">Product 4</option>
    </optgroup>
    <optgroup label="Products Cat 2">
        <option value="1">Product 5</option>
        <option value="2">Product 6</option>
        <option value="3" selected>Product 7</option>
        <option value="4">Product 8</option>
    </optgroup>
</select>

Of course, I initialized the select :

$('.mdb-select').material_select();

My problem is : the mdb select displayed don't have the product with value "3" checked (Product 7 in my case), it has the product with value "22" checked instead (Product 1)...

I tried to destroy et initialize again the select but it did nothing.I also tried to display the value of my select in console and I have this result :["", "22", "3"] instead of ["3"].

I don't want the "22" value, I never checked it ! The value "3" isn't checked in my select neither...

Thank you.
