shadow artifacts caused by fire on matte shadow plane - bdemetz - 07-07-2008

With fire and smoke being rendered together, the fire seems to create artifacts on the matte shadow ground plane created by the smoke - almost as if it's trying to add light back onto the shadow. This is with max scanline renderer and using standard matte/shadow material. If I turn off the fire shader, it renders a clean cast-shadow. Is there a workaround?

Thx,
