Problem with UNIQUE constraint

I'm having a problem defining UNIQUE constraints.  When I 
validate my schema using Schema Quality Checker (SQC), it 
reports 

  <xs:field xpath="RadioService"/>

evaluates to

  <xs:element name="RadioService" maxOccurs="1" 
minOccurs="1" nillable="false" type="HasClassification"/> whose 
type is not a simple type.

Here's a fragment of my schema
 
  <xs:simpleType name="SecurityPickList">
    <xs:restriction base="xs:string">
      <xs:enumeration value="U"/> <!-- Unclassified -->
      <xs:enumeration value="C"/> <!-- Confidential -->
      <xs:enumeration value="S"/> <!-- Secret -->
      <xs:enumeration value="T"/> <!-- Top Secret -->
    </xs:restriction>
  </xs:simpleType>
 <xs:complexType name="HasClassification">
    <xs:simpleContent>
      <xs:extension base="xs:string">
        <xs:attribute name="Class" type="SecurityPickList" 
use="optional"/>
      </xs:extension>
    </xs:simpleContent>
  </xs:complexType>
  <xs:element name="Rec_SelRadioSrvc" minOccurs="0" 
maxOccurs="1">
    <xs:complexType>
      <xs:all>
        <xs:element name="LineID"/>
        <xs:element name="RadioService" type="HasClassification"/>
      </xs:all>
      <xs:attribute name="id" type="xs:string" use="required"/>
    </xs:complexType>
    <xs:unique name="ID_SelRadioSrvc">
      <xs:selector xpath="."/>
      <xs:field xpath="LineID"/>
      <xs:field xpath="RadioService"/> <!-- ERROR OCCURS HERE 
-->
    </xs:unique>
  </xs:element> <!-- Rec_SelRadioSrvc -->

Obviously, the error occurs because the field xpath resolves to a 
complexType called "HasClassification".  But HasClassification is 
an element with simpleContent and an optional attribute.  Basically, 
I'm trying to create a schema to describe a database export.  Most 
of the data items in the database have an optional attribute called 
"Class" which is the classification (Unclassified, Confidential, or 
Secret) of the data item.

Can anyone suggest a workaround?  Is there some way to define 
the xpath to resolve only to the RadioService element so that the 
schema will validate?
