Issue with destructible objects and targeting

In a mission I made, I have 3 destructible objects. One spawns at the beginning of the mission and can be targeted and destroyed. After the object is destroyed a boss spawns and needs to be killed for the second object to spawn. Same for the third.
The problem is after the first boss is killed (he and all 3 are extreme AVs by the way, I'm not sure if it matters or not.) the second object spawns, can be targeted but it can't be attacked. When I or someone running with me targets and tries to attack the target it registers as "Invalid Target". Unless I use the AE option to "kill target" the mission cannot continue.
I tried using different maps, similar objects and different objects. The second target remains invalid.

Thanks in advance for any help.

There is (was?) a bug with some destructables where you had to agro them, usually by getting close enough within range or something; I never quite figured it out on an arc I was working on but shelved for different reasons (and this might not even be the same bug, but I thought I'd toss in to see if I can help). I seem to recall that an AoE worked well to "trigger" them.

Well I attempted to redo this with enemy groups set up around the objects and I was able to target and attack the first and the second object this time. Normally it's just the first, but I still was not able to attack the third object even after killing off its enemy group.
