Need to Bind a ComboBox in a Silverlight DataGrid Custom Column Header

Hi All. I have a Silverlight datagrid which we're trying to filter using controls in the column headers. I've got the controls in the column headers using styling and the DataTemplate, but I can't figure out how to bind a combobox control to an ObservableCollection in the page's viewmodel. The RowDetails template for the very same datagrid has a control that binds to the same source just fine, but for some reason the combo in the header can't seem to "see" it. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
