Transport of diluted species and Solid mechanics conflict

I created a 2D multiphysics model in which I apply an electric potential (electric currents module) to a transport of diluted species problem. The model and the coupling between this two physics worked very well.
I also added the electrostatic physics in order to consider the contribution to the potential of the space charge distribution. The model and the couplings worked well also with this three physics.
I also need to model the deformation of a domain of my model because of osmosis.
But when I try to add a solid mechanics physic (or also a deformed geometry or a moving mesh), the electro-chemical coupling stop to work, even if I don't solve the solid mechanics physics. In particular, even if I specified the applied electric potential in the Transport of diluted species physic, this does no more have effect on the migration of the charged species. If I delete the solid mechanics physic, all start to go well again.
Can someone help me please?
Thanks,
Stefano
PS: I'm making a time dependent fully coupled study...
