Under Yosemite, the script (application) wants activated, indicated by the bouncing icon in the dock, before the dialog is displayed.
I surrounded the "choose from list" command with:
tell me
activate
set Response to choose from list MyChoices with multiple selections allowed
end
When run as a script, this works. When run as an application, I still need to activate the script from the dock to make the dialog show up.
Pretty annoying, ain't it? Make sure you report this bug to Apple. This seems to work for me. I'm on 10.10.5.
set myName to name of me
tell application "System Events"
set frontmost of application process myName to true
end tell
tell application myName
choose from list {"bob"}
end tell
Sent from iCloud's ghastly UI, so sorry about the formatting
