CATextLayer and CAConstraint

I've been pulling my hair out trying to get a CATextLayer to work with a couple of CAConstraints. The following is a method implemented in a layer backed view and the following call is made in the view's awakeFromNib:
self.layer.layoutManager = [CAConstraintLayoutManager layoutManager];


The method is as follows:

-(void)addFileNameLayer:(NSString *)fileName
{
CATextLayer * fileNameLayer = [CATextLayer layer];
fileNameLayer.string = fileName;
fileNameLayer.name = @"fileNameLayer";
fileNameLayer.fontSize = 14.0;
fileNameLayer.alignmentMode = kCAAlignmentCenter;
fileNameLayer.wrapped = YES;
fileNameLayer.anchorPoint = CGPointMake(0.5, 0.5);
fileNameLayer.bounds = CGRectMake(0, 0, 320, 50);
[fileNameLayer addConstraint:[CAConstraint constraintWithAttribute:kCAConstraintMidX relativeTo:@"superlayer" attribute:kCAConstraintMidX]];
[fileNameLayer addConstraint:[CAConstraint constraintWithAttribute:kCAConstraintMidY relativeTo:@"superlayer" attribute:kCAConstraintMidY offset:-100]];
[self.layer addSublayer:fileNameLayer];
}


When the code executes, it displays nothing. I also add another plain old CALayer before I call this method with similar constraints and it works out fine. Anyone help would be appreciated.
