WP_Query with WPML returns different results on custom post types pages

Question

I am using Wordpress with WPML plugin (2 languages). I execute following WP_Query in header of all pages to get the results of my custom post type (slideshow):

$slideshow = new WP_Query(array( 'post_type' => 'slideshow', 'showposts' => 20 ));

Query works fine on homepage, posts, pages, archives and returns last 20 items from my custom post type "slideshow" in CURRENT language. But when I visit my custom post type page (e.g. /custom-post-type/post-name) the same query returns last 20 items from ALL languages which is wrong!

What can I do? I also tried experimenting with supress_filters true/false as suggested on various forums around the web but with no luck - it returns the same posts in any case.

can you define wrong? what is wrong? does it return one but not the other or does it return something else? some example of returns would help — vico
Like I said it should return only posts in current language like on other pages and not posts in all languages - that's the whole point in using WPML — j99

The problem was in custom post slugs translation... To fix this navigate to WPML > Translation management > Multilingual content setup and UNCHECK "Translate custom posts slugs (via WPML String Translation)"
