Default Combination chart: primary data labels obscure line series on secondary axis

I have a combination chart; a stacked column chart on the Primary Axis
and a line chart on the Secondary Axis. I use the stacked column chart
to display "bands" which I then overlay with the second data series. So
far so good, the line segments and markers draw "on top of" the bands.

But when I turn on data labels for the stacked column chart (to
identify the bands), they display in *front* of the line series?! The
column itself, remains behind, but the text of the data label is
drawing on top of the series.

Is there a way to force the labels *behind* the series on the secondary
axis?
