Vertex map is not correctly filled

I have an objectdata plugin.
In GetVirtualObjects() I create a vertex map.
This vertex map is the then used in a Smoothing deformer.

The hierarchy is then:
- Null
Smoothing deformer
objA - vertex deformer.

This works! Smoothing is visible.
I can see that if I insert a clone of this intermediate result.

After that I do a CSTO, but then it seems as if the vertex map is not correctly filled.
No smoothing is visible.

    def GetVirtualObjects(self, op, hierarchyhelp) :
  
        doc = op.GetDocument()
  
        if op.GetDown() is None or op.GetDown().GetNext() is None:
            return c4d.BaseObject(c4d.Onull)
  
        res = op.GetAndCheckHierarchyClone(hierarchyhelp, op.GetDown(), c4d.HIERARCHYCLONEFLAGS_ASPOLY , True)
        if res['dirty'] == False:
            return res['clone']
            
        objA = res['clone'].GetDown()
        objB = objA.GetNext()
        
        vertexMap = self.Selection2VertexMap(objA)  #create and add vertex map. This works.
  
        null2 = c4d.BaseObject(c4d.Onull)  
        objA.InsertUnder(null2)
        
        smoothingObject = c4d.BaseObject(1024529)     #smoothing
        smoothingObject[c4d.ID_CA_SMOOTHING_DEFORMER_OBJECT_STRENGTH] = .20  
        smoothingObject[c4d.ID_CA_SMOOTHING_DEFORMER_OBJECT_ITERATIONS] = 20
        smoothingObject[c4d.ID_CA_SMOOTHING_DEFORMER_OBJECT_STIFFNESS] = 1.0
        smoothingObject[c4d.ID_CA_SMOOTHING_DEFORMER_OBJECT_STIFF_MAP] = vertexMap    
        smoothingObject.InsertUnder(null2)
 
        cstoObject = self.CSTO(doc, null2) 
        doc.InsertObject(null2.GetClone())          #debug: Show intermediate result
        return cstoObject

I guess I solved it.
I am now using a temp document for the csto.
