JPA 2.0 Casecade implemenation for Hibernate JTA transactions - Please help me

I am using JPA 2.0 and Hibernate JTA transactions. I am having a problem when trying to insert row on a one to many relationship:

my parent Class: public class UserPreference implements Serializable


@OneToMany(mappedBy = "userPreference",fetch=FetchType.EAGER,orphanRemoval=true)
@Cascade(value={org.hibernate.annotations.CascadeType.ALL})
private Set<UserHeader> userHeaders; // child class reference

Child Class:

public class UserHeader implements Serializable

@ManyToOne
@JoinColumn(name="user_sr_id")
private UserPreference userPreference; (Master reference)


When I try to insert a child entity (userHeaders) then it is inserting two rows and the same leading to Unique Key Constraints exception
